Course summary

Our MA in Popular Music Practice focuses on the development and execution of a large–scale, individually tailored music–related project. This project will help you to grow within your areas of specialism and become ready to take the next step in your career.

Over a full year of study (two years if you have chosen the part-time option), you will be pushed to expand and develop your personal, musical and industry practices. Focus on the ways that research, collaboration, performance, production and more can be aligned in your project and practice.

The MA Popular Music Practice course structure is designed to cover theoretical, practical and collaborative elements. It culminates in a major project of your choice focusing on one or more specialisms.

Which specialisms will you choose?

For your major project, you’ll focus on one or more of these areas of specialism in detail, tailoring your studies individually, whilst taking your understanding of theory, practice and research to an advanced level.

Students are encouraged to combine these specialisms in creative ways, developing and producing original bespoke projects that can continue and flourish after their studies are complete.


You will be qualified to work as an advanced practitioner or educator/researcher within the field of popular music practice and related creative industries.
