This course leads to two separate degrees: the Bachelor of Science, and the Bachelor of Music. You will gain all the benefits of each degree course (see Bachelor of Science/Bachelor of Music) and be fully equipped to pursue a career in either field separately or to combine the two in your chosen work. Physics, mathematics and music have been related for millennia in the art and science of acoustics but the links are much more extensive. The latest developments in physics, psychology, human biology, materials science, information science and statistical analysis all give us new answers to ancient questions about music - what it is, why we make it, how we make it, why we listen to it and how it is changing.Whether your music specialisation is in Performance, Composition, Ethnomusicology and musicology or Creative music technology, a broad understanding of science will illuminate and enrich the experience.
