Develop into an accomplished and confident musician and distinguish yourself by spending a year studying abroad.

Course overview

This rewarding four-year degree follows the same study programme as our Music BA Honours degree, but includes an integrated year studying abroad in Europe, Australia or North or South America.

Study music at Newcastle and join a dynamic and pro-active community of music makers who are committed to valuing all music. This community will help you embrace your individual creativity, and you'll develop your critical thinking about music.

You can choose topics based on your interests such as music history, cultural theory, and essentials of music theory. We also offer optional vocationally oriented modules in music education and music enterprise.

If you wish to specialise in performance, your skills will be nurtured by our specialist performance tutors, who are experts in their craft, and run one-to-one tuition and group lessons.

Teaching methods

To bring out the best in you, we use different forms of teaching for the range of approaches to music we cover.

Some modules are based around lectures and seminars, with reading or listening assignments. Others modules have smaller specialised study groups.

Performance modules are often a combination of one-to-one tuition, group workshops and specialist masterclasses.

Study abroad

Experience life in another country by studying abroad as part of your degree. You鈥檒l be encouraged to embrace fun and challenging experiences, make connections with new communities and graduate as a globally aware professional, ready for your future.
