As a research programme, the course does not have a modular outline. Each student receives close supervision on an individual and original project, which has the potential to make a new and substantial contribution to the field. Each student has a supervisory committee, led by the main supervisor, assisted by two other staff members with relevant expertise. Research students have regular meetings with their supervisor and are entitled to consult other members of their committee as appropriate. They are also encouraged to present reports on their work in seminars and colloquia during each of their period of study. Final assessment will be through viva voce examination through an appointed panel. The panel consists of one internal examiner from within the University/School (not identical with members of the supervisory committee), one external examiner, who is an expert in the field, and a chair.
Degree at British Masters standard: normally merit degree or equivalent. English proficiency (for non-native English or Welsh speakers): Performers will have to audition or, alternatively, submit a recent unedited recorded video performance, featuring contrasting repertoire (45-60 minutes). Musicologists and composers may be asked to submit samples of their work. Postgraduate degrees by research are suitable for candidates who already have some experience at postgraduate level (normally evinced through a Masters degree). Apart from these formal requirements, candidates will be accepted on the strength of their research proposal.
