The MA Music and Composition and MA Music and Technology share common modules in research methods and postgraduate study skills, while giving you the opportunity to foster your subject skills in specialist modules. Work is developed through individual enquiry as well as sharing and critiquing ideas through group seminars, designed to provide a forum for debate as well as practical instruction. There will also be significant opportunity for collaborative and interdisciplinary work taking into account other arts subjects at Medway and Canterbury.
The MA in Music and Composition focuses on the creation and analysis of music, taking into account major musical developments over the past few decades.
The MA in Music and Technology focuses on the use, development and implementation of technology within the wider musical context, exploring issues such as interactivity, audio programming, sound spatialisation and multimedia.
Both MA programmes are designed to provide knowledge and skills in practice-based research, as well as giving students experience of current research practices in various areas of critical and analytical thinking.
