Bachelor of Creative Arts (Music)

A Bachelor of Creative Arts at UOW encourages you to immerse yourself creatively, critically and practically. The Creative Industries are some of the fastest-growing, most dynamic sectors in the world. The study of music integrates physical, intellectual and emotional aspects, including instrumental or vocal performance, composition, music production and recording, history and theory.

This degree offers a deeper understanding of how music works, as well as the skills to develop as a creative practitioner and prepare for a career in the arts. This is a versatile, hands-on degree that prepares you for a career in the global creative industries. With a strong focus on contemporary music practice, this major combines performance, composition and both electronic and acoustic media so you can build your skills and expertise across three interrelated areas: music studio, audio production and critical studies in music.

The Bachelor of Creative Arts (Music) involves study of theory and practice-based work. You will develop your own style and identity through creative processes, conceptual skills and applying your knowledge into practice, independently and collaboratively with students and staff from other creative disciplines. Beyond that you will build specialised technical skills, and a clear grasp of how your own practice relates to the wider music community.
