Expand your knowledge and understanding of music with a master’s degree at the University of Southampton. You’ll graduate with the knowledge and skills for a career in music or further research on a PhD.
Our MMus Musicology degree gives you the opportunity to specialise in various elements of musicology. On this course, you’ll study current trends in musicological method and critical practice, key research skills in musicology and methodologies of advanced musical analysis.
Our academic staff are internationally noted performers with active solo and ensemble careers, and established composers of contemporary art music, electronic music, media music (for example, in film, TV and videogames), and jazz. These world-leading experts can offer you intensive one-to-one tuition in music history, culture and performance.
We'll assess your knowledge through: work portfolios, group and individual presentations, essays and analyses and your final dissertation.
You’ll need a 2:1 degree in music or a related subject. For the Musicology pathway, you’ll need to submit 2 samples of written work. These should be between 1,500 and 2,500 words each on musicological questions of your choice.
