Music MA: Research areas
Current research in this subject
Many of the staff in the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences are research active. This ensures they are in touch with the latest thinking and bring best practice to your studies.
Research in music is focused on:
- intermedia research – composing, performing and reflecting upon new work within the spectrum of contemporary practice;
- history, analysis and criticism – exploring relationships between musical text and context from the 18th Century to the present; and
- applied music – developing business, innovation and skills for musicians.
We also hold regular research seminars (read more in the Events and lectures section). You can read the latest research news in the School of Performance and Screen Studies' research newsletter.
Student research
You may be able to publish any research you undertake on the Kingston University Research and Innovation Reports (KURIR) website. This site gives anyone associated with Kingston University the opportunity to publish articles, which will be permanently available to the academic community.
