Requirements for the Bachelor of Music in Dual Mode
The basic requirements for the degree in Dual mode (96 UOC) are:
Dual Mode with Bachelor of Arts
Because both Dual programs are internal to the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences the General Education (GE) Exemption for Dual programs does not apply. For students completing the BMus in this Dual mode the Prescribed Faculty Elective in the BA is replaced with an approved GE course to meet 6 UOC of the GE requirement. The other 6 UOC is to be taken by converting a Prescribed Music Elective into an approved GE course. This completes the 12 UOC GE requirement. Core Level 1
Level 2
Level 3
Prescribed Electives in Musicology/Musicianship
Prescribed Electives Prescribed Musicology/Musicianship electives are chosen from the list of offerings published by the Program.

Honours High achieving BMus students (in Single or Dual Mode) may apply for entry to Honours. Honours is an additional year of study (two years part-time) which allows a student to further explore their studies. It involves seminars and the completion or a research project or thesis. Those students who are considering Honours should submit an expression of interest at the beginning of Level 4 and complete a formal application at the end of Level 4. Both should be submitted to the Honours Convenor of the School of the Arts and Media. Entry to Honours requires a WAM of 70 or higher in the depth component of the program and is subject to resources and the approval of the Head of School in which the stream(s) is/are based. Honours is awarded in three classes (Class 1, Class 2 in two Divisions, and Class 3). If requirements for these classes are not met the Pass degree will be awarded if the student is not already a Graduate of the program.
Eligible students may commence the relevant Honours program only when they have completed the requirements for the equivalent of a single degree for that program (i.e where a Music student in a dual program would like to commence Honours they must have completed at least the 96 UOC Music core degree plus 48 units of credit for the Arts degree such that a total of 144 UOC has been completed). Performance Ensembles BMus students must take part in at least two of the performance ensembles offered by the School, one of which must be a major performing ensemble.
