Masters in Musicology (MMus)
The Master in Musicology (MMus) is the only designated master's degree in musicology in Ireland. We offer an innovative modular programme, which allows students to pursue a wide range of interests, and to work closely with some of the leading musical scholars in the country.
The programme has two guiding aims:
- To furnish a comprehensive grounding in the core disciplinary strengths of historical musicology, music analysis and ethnomusicology.
- To encourage inter-disciplinary study, by enabling students to take modules in all of these areas, whilst also facilitating specialisation.
The degree emphasises progression from taught foundational modules, through focused case studies reflecting the School's major research strengths, to opportunities for independent research. The MMus may be taken either as a full-time degree (one year) or as a part-time degree (two years).
