The theory program is designed for students who have a strong background in either composition or musicology and demonstrate a high potential for theoretical work. Besides submitting work to demonstrate their admissibility in theory, applicants must explicitly indicate either composition or musicology as a secondary area, explicitly writing "theory (comp)" or "theory (mus)" on the application form. They must also submit additional work as necessary to demonstrate their admissibility in the secondary area, where substantial course work will be taken during the first two years of study. Theory students are expected to develop understanding of important areas of current theoretical research as well as critical sophistication concerning the problems of formulating organized discourse about musical structures. On the completion of preparatory training and the passing of the General Examinations, PhD dissertations may be written addressing original theoretical problems that illuminate significant areas of musical study.
