School Location
Musicology embraces the study of history, theory, and practice of music from many points of view; graduate study in musicology may cover approaches such as historical and ethnographic investigation as well as music theory, hermeneutics, and criticism. Students are expected to become familiar with a wide range of areas: methods, philosophies, and techniques of historical research methods for analysis of music and ethnomusicological research. There is no formal core curriculum for musicology at Princeton; courses and seminars offered by the musicology and composition faculty deal mostly with fields in which faculty members are actively engaged, and thus provide graduate students with a rich variety of methods and approaches in a lively intellectual environment. Students are encouraged to take advantage of course offerings in the Composition Program, and may also wish to explore interdisciplinary studies through Princeton’s rich offerings across the Humanities. There are no degree programs in performance or music education; the department does, however, maintain a non-degree program in musical performance instruction available to both graduate and undergraduate students.
