The programme provides an intellectual training through study of the historical, technical, analytical, compositional and performance aspects of music, examines contemporary cultural and social settings for music and provides opportunities for the acquisition of a broad range of intellectual, critical and creative skills in preparation for:
The Joint programme allows students to study a European language as the part of their programme, spending the third year of study abroad.
Programme Intended Learning Outcomes | Learning and Teaching Methods |
---|---|
|
Acquisition of knowledge through lectures, seminars, tutorials and directed reading with emphasis, where appropriate, on primary materials and their interpretation. Independent learning is pursued through written coursework, supervised research projects and individual practice/rehearsal, as appropriate, for Performance units. |
Methods of Assessment | |
Examination (Level C/4 'Historical Studies'; Level I/5 'Approaches to Music History I' & Approaches to Music History II'; Level I/5 & H/6 split-level music-history options Coursework (Level C/4 'Historical Studies'; Level C/4 'Technical Studies I' & 'Technical Studies II'; Level C/4 'Practical Studies: Instrumentation and Conducting' (instrumentation coursework); Level C/4 'Composition'; Level I/5 and Level H/6 'Further Technical Studies' and 'Advanced Technical Studies'; Level I/5 'Compositional Strategy', 'Studio Composition Live' and 'Writing for Orchestra'; Lecel I/5 'Performance' (logbook); Level I/5 'Transcription and Editing'; Level I/5 & H/6 split-level music-history and analysis options; Level H/6 Extended Study Performance' (programme notes) The following units are wholly assessed by coursework submissions (written exercises, dissertation or portfolio): Level C/4 'Criticism and the Arts'; Level I/5 & H/6 options 'The Film Musical' and 'Discourses of Cultural Degeneration'; Level H/6 option 'Aesthetics and Criticism'; Level H/6 'Extended Study' (in 'Musicology', 'Composition' or 'Studio Composition'); Level H/6 'Musicology Project', 'Composition Project', 'Studio Project' and 'Editing Project' Recital or other demonstration of practical skill (Level C/4 'Practical Studies'; Level C/4 'Composition' (participation in workshops); Levels I/5 and H/6 'Performance' options) |
Programme Intended Learning Outcomes | Learning and Teaching Methods |
---|---|
|
Intellectual skills are developed through seminars, tutorials, oral presentations and written assignments (essays and supervised research projects). All units are structured so as to develop the skills of analysis, bibliographical control, synthesis and critical evaluation (points 1-4). Additionally, specific units at all levels focus on other intellectual skills such as planning, problem-solving and research methods (5, 6). At all levels of the programme there are seminar settings in which students have the opportunity to develop oral presentation skills (7). Formative feedback on these seminar presentations, and tutorially in relation to written exercises provide occasions for contextual reflection (8). |
Methods of Assessment | |
All assessment tasks (written examinations, assessed coursework and supervised research projects) test powers of analysis, bibliographical control, synthesis and evaluation (points 1-4). Problem-solving (point 5) is assessed both by written examinations and coursework (written and oral). Research skills are assessed through written coursework and supervised research projects, which also provide opportunities for self-directed work (point 6). Common to the assessment of all these is the requirement for accuracy and clarity of expression (7). |
Programme Intended Learning Outcomes | Learning and Teaching Methods |
---|---|
|
Seminars and tutorials are used to develop oral communication by requiring students to engage in group discussions, make convincing individual oral presentations and act as a respondent to the presentations of others. Team-working exercises (eg seminar presentations) are integrated into specific units in each of the last two years of the programme. Written communication is developed through project assignments, regular coursework and supervised research projects, typically within the various historical options but also in Level H Aesthetics and Criticism. |
Methods of Assessment | |
Assessment is primarily through written media (examinations, assessed coursework, and supervised research projects) providing evidence of a variety of essential communication skills (1, 2, 4). Assessed coursework and dissertations are also used to test key skills in the following units: Level C Historical Studies I and II; Level I Core Units; Levels I and H List C options; Level H Extended Studies (3, 6,7,8). Performance skills are tested by ensemble work and solo recitals at all levels (4, 5, 6). A programme of lessons and rehearsals documented in a log book tests the ability to sustain development over time and to write reflectively about the experience (1, 4, 5, 6, 8). |
Statement of expectations from the students at each level of the programme as it/they develop year on year.
Level C/4 - Certificate |
By the end of their studies at level C, students are expected to be able to demonstrate a sound knowledge of the fundamental principles of musicology (including a grasp of appropriate repertoires and texts and a satisfactory level of competence in the relevant bibliographic skills) as well as an ability to apply these in written texts of different kinds; confidence in handling elements of musical notation and language (for example, intervals, rhythms, modes, metres and sonorities); competence in the memorising of musical materials sufficient to enable accurate realisation of notation in sound; where appropriate, demonstrate a degree of personal expression and creativity in practical music-making; foundational knowledge of composition (whether acoustic or studio), and including the basics of sound recording and manipulation, MIDI and notation software. The expectation is that their work may require substantial direction from members of staff at this stage (supplied tutorially and in dedicated support seminars). |
---|---|
Level I/5 - Intermediate |
At level I students are expected to be able to demonstrate that they have expanded the range and depth of their knowledge of the various sub-disciplines and their capacity to evaluate these using a variety of critical perspectives. They should also have developed a higher level of competence in the relevant technical and/or practical skills. At this stage, students should be developing a capacity for mature reflection on specific aspects of the subject and for self-directed learning (for example, through the researching and writing of approved seminar projects). It is expected that at least a part of this gradual process of absorption will occur in seminars, in which second-year students are taught together with third-years and have the opportunity to gain insight and confidence from observing the contribution of more experienced students. Composers are expected to develop a critical relationship to their evolving musical language such that a personal 'voice' can be recognized intuitively and rationalized in the specific handling of and inter-relation between musical elements. Analytical studies may play a part in the acquisition of this skill. Performers are expected to refine the technical and interpretative aspects of their craft both as soloists and in an ensemble situation. |
Level H/6 - Honours |
At level H students are expected to expand the breadth of their knowledge through their study of optional subjects and to develop further their ability to gather and assimilate information. They are expected to synthesise material in an appropriate way, engage in sophisticated critical evaluation of texts about music, construct effective and detailed arguments (both orally and in writing) that display competence in the practices, processes, techniques and methodologies that underpin musicological practice. As composers, they are expected to refine the creative imagination, lateral thinking skills, and disciplined objectification of original ideas in a practical form. As performers, they are expected to develop a sensitivity to the musical demands of pieces in a variety of styles, and/or an affinity with the relevant performance practices of one particular style, and to communicate their interpretations with confidence in a performance setting. At this level students are expected to be able to demonstrate their capacity for self-directed study using the skills acquired and developed at level C and I. |

Statement of expectations from the students at each level of the programme as it/they develop year on year.
Level C/4 - Certificate |
Year 1 of the programme is designed to lay the foundations which will allow students to fulfil the programme's aims and objectives. Students take the language unit appropriate to their level of entry. Language units address the development of key language skills. Mandatory units in twentieth-century literature and contemporary society introduce students to key areas of study offered in the programme. Students will gain a broad grounding in the discipline and its methodological concerns. This will also allow them to make informed choices about which units to select in future years. The Project (available as an optional unit for post Alevel students) is designed to develop independent research skills as an integral part of the programme from the outset. It is expected that students' work may require considerable direction from staff at this stage. |
---|---|
Level I/5 - Intermediate |
Students are expected to be able to demonstrate that they have expanded the range and depth of their knowledge of the discipline in both mandatory and optional units. They will develop analytical skills, and expand their ability to structure and present work effectively. Language work will be of a higher level of complexity and students will advance their ability to work creatively with Italian and improve mediation skills. Active participation in seminars and responsibility for group learning is required. There is an enhanced degree of self-directed learning (for example in the researching and writing of course work assignments) |
Level H/6 - Honours |
The Year Abroad is designed to enable students to use, reinforce and expand the language structures learnt in the first two years of the degree scheme. Written work in Italian undertaken during the Year Abroad furthers students' capacity to carry out research on primary sources. Students will develop their knowledge of Italian culture and society through first-hand experience and extend their range of key transferable skills. Students spend the entire academic year in Italy. Students will be expected to have expanded their knowledge of the subject area through the study of optional units that allow them to follow more closely their particular area of interest. They will work at a higher level of methodological and conceptual complexity. They will be expected to work more independently in gathering and assimilating information, synthesising it in an appropriate way and engaging in the sophisticated analysis of primary texts. There is an emphasis on self-directed study and the development of research skills. Language work draws on the knowledge of Italian culture and society that students will have developed in the course of their compulsory residence in Italy. Students will be expected to be able to use Italian creatively and accurately for a range of purposes and audiences. The receptive and productive skills that students develop in the fourth year are designed to be useful in circumstances that students may encounter in the workplace. |

UG Workload Statement
Success as an undergraduate student depends on you being able to make the transition to self-motivated, independent learning. Programmes are designed to assist you in this development, in many cases by starting with units in which timetabled teaching, such as lectures and practical classes, provides the foundations of knowledge and skills in a subject, moving on to individual research-based work. Over time you will be expected to take increasing responsibility for your own learning, guided by the feedback on your work that you will receive. At the heart of your studies at every level there must be regular and disciplined individual reading, reflection and writing and it is this skill of independent studies, above all others, that will serve you best when you leave the University.
Most programmes use credits and a 20 credit unit broadly equates to about 200 hours of student input. This includes all activities related to the teaching, learning and assessment of taught units.
A component of this is the time that you spend in class, in contact with the teaching staff, which includes activities such as lectures, laboratories, tutorials and fieldwork. Some of this activity may be online and could consist of activity that is synchronous (using real-time environments such as Blackboard Collaborate) or asynchronous (using tools such as tutor moderated discussion forums, blogs or wikis).
In some programmes there are field courses and/or placements that will take place in concentrated periods of time.
Outside scheduled activities you are expected to pursue your own independent learning to build your knowledge and understanding of the subjects you are studying. Such independent activities include, reviewing lecture material, reading textbooks, working on examples sheets, completing coursework, writing up laboratory notes, preparing for in-class progress tests and revising for examinations.
We recognise that many students undertake paid employment. To achieve a sensible balance between work and study, you are advised to undertake paid work for no more than 15 hours per week in term-time.
Professional Programmes
Many undergraduates in the Faculty of Health Sciences will be following the professional programmes of:
For these professional programmes, full time attendance is compulsory unless absence is formally approved. Academic activities are timetabled throughout the 5-day week and student workload is around 40 hours per week on average. Where possible, students in the early years are permitted Wednesday afternoons for sport and extra-curriculum activities. This may not be available in later years of professional programmes as when a student progresses through the curricula there is an increasing exposure to clinical and professional activities. Students in clinic or on placements may need to stay later than core times of 08.00 – 18.00 or even overnight to observe out-of-hours activities. This increasing exposure to clinical activities means that students on these professional programmes often have longer term dates than the University standard. Individual years within programmes are likely to vary in length (for example because of the timings of placements) and further information on this will be found in individual programme regulations. Another important point to note is that many of the assessments sit outside of the standard University examination timetable and are likely to be more frequent meaning that students will more oftentimes be engaged in revision activities and self-directed learning.

The BA Joint Honours programme in Music and Italian is a full-time (4 year) programme. It requires 480 credit points including 240 from levels I and H and 120 from the year abroad. All students take 60 credits at Level C, 20 of which are Mandatory (see Section 18). The remainder of the programme (240 credit points) is made up of optional units at Levels I and H (though there are certain limitations on the combination of these). The particular permutations of credits obtainable from the Music Units are shown in Section 18 above. Credit points are awarded for satisfactory completion of each unit (ie. attendance, undertaking the prescribed exercises and passing the assessments, in accordance with current Arts Faculty regulations and ordinances). The study of a 10 credit point unit should involve 100 hours of learning effort (including contact teaching hours); the study of a 20 credit point unit should involve 200 hours of learning effort (including contact teaching hours). Virtually all aspects of the BA (Hons) programme in Music taken by Joint Honours students offer the opportunity to acquire and develop transferable skills much valued by employers, and reflected in the encouraging employment statistics relating to recent graduates.
