Doctor's degree Musicology - Cornell University

Doctor's degree Musicology from Cornell University is a Campus Ph.D Music and Instruments degree that prepares you for a Art and Design career. Cornell awards the Ph.D. for original contributions to the study of music, considered broadly to include a wide range of repertories, traditions, and methodologies. While the program encompasses ethnomusicology , music theory, and historical musicology , Cornell offers a single Ph.D. in musicology. The musicology program at Cornell is designed to lead to the Ph.D. degree; a terminal M.A. is not offered, but students who enter the doctoral program without having already earned an M.A. receive this degree in the course of their studies. Students accepted into the Ph.D. program are guaranteed five full years of financial support, in the form of two years of fellowships (usually taken in the first and fifth years) and three years of teaching assistantships. The doctoral program in musicology is uniquely flexible; it is developed individually, in consultation with the student's Special Committee, and students may combine their study in the Field of Music (historical musicology , ethnomusicology, theory, composition and performance practice) with work in other Fields of study at Cornell. There are no formal course requirements in the Field of Music; nevertheless we generally expect all first year graduate students to take Music 6201 (Introduction to Bibliography and Research), and we strongly urge students to take Music 6101 (Analytical Techniques) and Music 6301 (Introduction to Ethnomusicology).
