Overview

Master of Arts in Music - Music Education

The M.A. in Music Education (Thesis or Non-Thesis options) provides an opportunity for studio- and classroom-based teachers, and music educators working in other community settings, to explore current issues in music education and implement their own research studies.  

Seminars introduce the foundations of a range of research methodologies and critical thinking skills.  

In the Non-Thesis option, expertise in two areas is developed through two written papers.

Students at McGill University benefit from:

  • Leadership opportunities are cultivated through connections to Teaching and Learning Services, community outreach programs, the Global Leadership program & El Sistema, Chamber Music Without Borders, and McGill Conservatory.
  • A supportive environment of strong undergraduate joint B.Mus/B.Ed. Curriculum.
  • Stimulation of multi-disciplinary seminars that nurture dialogue with excellent performers also interested in teaching.
  • State-of-the-art technology for studying the physiology of performance and modelling best practices.
