Aspiring music students are invited to apply to Humanities I as a pathway to earning a Bachelor of Arts in Music. This program doesn't require auditions. At our School of the Arts, we're transforming music education approaches. Although we've temporarily suspended admissions to the Music 1 program for September 2024, we remain dedicated to revitalizing music studies at McMaster.
We're focused on redesigning the Music program to eliminate obstacles, reflect contemporary musical realities, and leverage McMaster's unique advantages.
While we continue reshaping the Music curriculum, current students in Music level 1 and all Music degree tracks (including BMus, BMus(Music Cognition), BA in Music, and Combined Honours programs) can complete their studies without disruption.
For those considering music studies, our Bachelor of Arts with a music major offers comprehensive training in music history, performance, and theory, plus opportunities to explore music therapy, music cognition, conducting, and popular music. Students can also choose electives from other fields.
This audition-free program opens doors to undergraduate music education for students with diverse backgrounds and skill levels.
