NEW* Masters (MSc) in Performance Science

One year full-time
Two years part-time
Starting September 2011 
 
Centre for Performance Science
Royal College of Music, London
www.rcm.ac.uk/MSc 

The MSc in Performance Science is an internationally distinctive
programme, providing opportunities to examine the art and science of
performance in real-world educational and professional contexts. It
challenges students to engage with key facets of peak performance,
musicians’ health and wellbeing,musical development, and effective
learning and teaching.
Drawing on the expertise and facilities of the Centre for Performance
Science - as well as the lively performance environment of the RCM and of
London - the programme aims to help students develop a robust
understanding of performance through the lens of the scientific method,
while gaining the critical and analytical skills necessary to conduct high
quality practical work and independent research in this field.
 
Seminars and tutorials are organized according to the following core units:

Psychology of Performance (30 credits)
An introduction to processes and perspectives that define and underpin
performance psychology, including the mental skills that enable effective
practice and successful performance.

 
Musicians' Health and Wellbeing (30 credits)
An examination of the physical and mental demands of music making and the
ways musicians at all levels meet those demands. Delivered in partnership
with the MSc in Performing Arts Medicine at University College London.


Musical Development (30 credits)
An analysis of fundamental principles of musical development, education,
and expertise, exploring music perception and production throughout the
lifespan and implications for learning and teaching.

 
Trends and Methods in Performance Science (30 credits)
An introduction to the scientific method and related methodological
approaches appropriate to conducting independent research in performance
science, explored through seminars and an international speaker series
highlighting the latest developments in the field.

 
Research Project and Dissertation (60 credits)
The application of knowledge and experience to complete an independent
research project, informed and shaped by practical, theoretical, and
ethical considerations.
 
PROSPECTIVE STUDENTS 
The programme will benefit anyone who is motivated to gain a scientific
understanding of how music is created, learned, performed, and perceived,
including performers and teachers aiming to progress their current careers
through continued professional development. Equally, it serves as an ideal
base for those wishing to pursue advanced research (PhD/DMus) and teaching
in performance science, music psychology, or musicians’ health, or in
any area in which knowledge of methods and techniques in science would be
an advantage.
 
The programme is aimed primarily at musicians and other performing artists,
although candidates from other disciplines will be considered.
