The Music Department at Rutgers offers MA and PhD degrees in musicology. These academic programs enable students to take advantage of both the professional conservatory setting within the Mason Gross School of the Arts and the broad, humanistic environment of a major research university. Classes in research methods and current issues in musicology are supplemented by seminars open to musicologists, music theorists, composers and performers. The program focuses on helping students refine their skills in critical thinking, research and writing, encouraging application of a broad range of approaches and methodologies. Musicology students are encouraged to take courses in theory, analysis and performance practice as well as courses in other departments throughout the university as appropriate to their research interests.
