The four-year BA in Music programme offers a choice of four study streams: composition, pedagogy, performance, and research (selected at the end of Year 2). In the first two years of study, students take courses that provide the foundation for later specialization. In Year 3, students focus more on their selected stream, and in Year 4 complete capstone courses. In addition, students may choose electives on diverse topics, including electronic music, conducting, ensembles, and advanced acedemic courses in Western and Chinese music history, theory and analysis, and world musics.
