Master’s degree in Music
The aim of the Master of Arts program in the Department of Music is to help students develop independent thought and acquire tools for unique research and creative projects (composition). In addition, we encourage our students to work in a multi-disciplinary creative environment within the School of Arts. The Master of Arts program provides significant theoretical knowledge on which the students will be able to base their future research and creative activities.
