ABOUT
This course will run in 2023. Applications open in September 2022.
World music studies encompasses the study of any and all musical activity in the world: Western as well as ‘exotic’, popular as well as classical, amateur as well as professional.
The course allows you to specialise in an area of your choice, while providing the opportunity to study musical phenomena from a global perspective.
Some students take advantage of Sheffield’s position as a major hub of both English and ‘Celtic’ musical activity to pursue in-depth studies on traditional musics of the British Isles. Others enjoy the opportunity to develop new understanding of musical sounds, practices and cultures from elsewhere in the world.
In this course, ‘world music’ is interpreted quite literally as encompassing, in principle, the study of any and all musical activity in the world: Western as well as ‘exotic’, popular as well as classical, amateur as well as professional.
Traditional and world musics and their associated cultures are studied through practical methods such as fieldwork and direct participation in music-making, as well as library research and theoretical interpretation.
You’ll gain both a deeper knowledge of the music and a set of skills for discovering and communicating new knowledge about music.
A selection of modules are available each year – some examples are below. There may be changes before you start your course.
First year
Second year
The content of our courses is reviewed annually to make sure it’s up-to-date and relevant. Individual modules are occasionally updated or withdrawn. This is in response to discoveries through our world-leading research; funding changes; professional accreditation requirements; student or employer feedback; outcomes of reviews; and variations in staff or student numbers. In the event of any change we’ll consult and inform students in good time and take reasonable steps to minimise disruption. We are no longer offering unrestricted module choice. If your course included unrestricted modules, your department will provide a list of modules from their own and other subject areas that you can choose from.
2 years part-time by distance learning
Distance learning means that most of the teaching is done through the University online portals where you can access course materials, library materials, and class discussion boards.
You will also be supported by email and online tutorials.
Annual residentials are an important part of the course. By attending these residentials, you’ll have the chance to meet your tutors and peers. The residentials include introductory sessions on systems, lecture topics, seminars, world music performance workshops and tutorials.
Assessments take a variety of forms such as reports and essays, fieldnotes and recordings, and a final dissertation or folio.
2:1 undergraduate degree. If your undergraduate degree is not in music, you’ll need to provide evidence of substantial engagement with music.
We also recognise the value of experience, and may accept applications from people who have been in practice, or who bring other experience to their studies.
Overall IELTS score of 6.5 with a minimum of 6.0 in each component, or equivalent.
We don’t yet have the fees for 2023 entry. Please use the 2022 fees as a guide:
The fee listed is for the advertised mode of study. If you’re studying for an alternative qualification or via a different mode of study (eg full-time, part-time) then the fee could be different. Due to inflation, the fee for Home students could also increase after your first year of study.
