Music Research and Composition

Mission Statement
The Department of Music Research and Composition approaches music as a form of creative activity and an object of intellectual engagement. Our composers create music for both traditional ensembles and electronic media. Our scholars reflect on the character, history, and organization of music.

Our department offers a wide range of undergraduate degrees including a Bachelor of Music with Honours in both Music Research and Composition; a Bachelor of Arts degree with a Major in Popular Music Studies; and a Specialization in Music Administrative Studies. Graduate opportunities include Master's and doctoral programs in Composition, Musicology, and Music Theory.
