Master of Music in Performance - Applied Music and Health

The field of Applied Music and Health combines work in music performance with study in the application of music in a range of health and pedagogical contexts. Students develop their performance skills and also become practiced in the use of music to promote and support the maintenance, recovery, and development of healthy brain and behavior functions across the age spectrum and in a variety of health and pedagogical settings. Students are able to take courses in a range of disciplines within music as well as in other departments, especially those with faculty involved in our Music and Health Research Collaboratory (MaHRC). The number of electives provides students the flexibility to select courses most appropriate for their career goals.

Applicants to the MMus program must hold a Bachelor of Music degree in the area of specialization from the University of Toronto with an average standing of mid-B or better over the final two years or an equivalent program (Bachelor of Music or Bachelor of Arts in Music) and standing from another recognized university.
