- Students enrolled in the PhD program who wish to obtain a Master’s Degree as part of their credentials can do so at the time of their advancement to PhD candidacy (after they have passed comprehensive exams and submitted their prospectus) by communicating that intention to the Division Head, who will ask for the Division’s consent.
- Once the Division has approved the student’s Master’s Degree petition, the student must communicate with the Music Graduate Coordinator, who will provide details on how to complete the paperwork that will be required for the Graduate School to award the Master’s Degree on the basis of coursework. The student must have taken MUS 394 with their doctoral advisor in order for this paperwork to be completed successfully.
