Academic Area
 |
The musicology area is the focal point in the School of Music,
Faculty of Arts for critical and historical, theoretical, and cross-cultural
research in music. Staff research interests include music of the
late-eighteenth, nineteenth and twentieth centuries, contemporary
music, gender studies, ethnomusicology and music and film. There
is a particular emphasis on music in the Australian context: indigenous
music and folk music, music in the colonial period, contemporary
composition and music of women composers. Staff are involved with
a number of collaborative projects with researchers in other areas-most
notably in film and music, with the School of Humanities and indigenous
music, with the Centre for Cross-cultural Research and School of
Archeology and Anthropology.
These diverse research interests are reflected in courses offered
at undergraduate and graduate level; staff also offer specialist
courses in musicological research techniques. The undergraduate
courses attract students from single and combined degree programs
from all faculties of the university. The musicology area plays
a significant role in the supervision of honours and graduate research
projects, and staff run a weekly research seminar and a research
symposium each semester. A number of graduate students undertake
interdisciplinary projects in collaboration with other faculties
and centres of the university. |
