The School of Music at the University of Ottawa is one of the country's leading music schools. 

It is the ideal place to nurture your passion for all things musical and to pursue the rigorous training needed for an active and successful career in the field. 

The program boasts state-of-the-art music facilities and internationally recognized professors who perform around the globe and publish in leading academic journals. 

The university is a full-service music school offering programs in performance, composition, music education, piano pedagogy, theory and musicology. 

Although any of the programs can pave the way for a career in education, musicology, music journalism or arts administration, the Bachelor of Music (BMus) is designed specifically for students wishing to become career musicians. 

Admission to the BMus therefore requires that you audition on your main instrument and demonstrate an intermediate or advanced level. 

In addition, the University of Ottawa is one of the only institutions in the country to offer the possibility of combining the BMus program in performance with a major in science.

This program is offered in English and in French.
