Music University of Southampton

Overview

During this  Music PhD programme from University of Southampton  will be supported by a research community of around 30 postgraduate research students. Your research will be guided by primary supervisor and a team of co-supervisors, possibly drawn from across the University. You will be inspired and challenged in regular residencies, workshops and seminars by distinguished music scholars, performers and composers throughout the year. You will have ample opportunity to gain real-world experience, for example by participating the activities of the Centre for Music Education and Social Justice and the AHRC Hub for Public Engagement with Music Research .
