ntroduction
HKUST and SHSS has launched an innovative approach to creative arts education based on the principle of Research Embedded Teaching:
Teachers are active practitioners who teach a curriculum based on their own 'research,' that is creativity rather than criticism.
Students are taught to understand the arts from the perspective of creators and producers rather than consumers and critics.
Begun in 2012, the lead programme is in music composition and performance, coordinated by internationally-acclaimed composer, pianist, and conductor, Prof. Bright Sheng (Y.K.Pao Distinguished Visiting Professor, HKUST) and centered around The Intimacy of Creativity.
Hailed by the Financial Times as 'the city's most innovative music experience', The Intimacy of Creativity is an annual two-week partnership devoted to promoting an intimate dialogue between composers and performers. World-renowned composers and performers, together with emerging composers, present and revise their chamber music compositions after in-depth Open Discussions on the campus of HKUST. Revised compositions are formally presented at Preview Concerts at HKUST and World Premiere Concerts in downtown Hong Kong.
The Intimacy of Creativity is presented by HKUST as part of HKUST Music Alive!, a new concert series promoting HKUST as a global center for creative, well-rounded education.
The School offers a variety of music courses in which students learn the value of creativity and collaboration and its applications in the other fields of study. Courses are currently taught by Composers-in-Residence, Prof. Matthew Tommasini and Prof. Steven Snowden; tenor, Prof. Oliver Lo; renowned violinist and HKUST Honorary FellowProf. Takako Nishizaki; and Dr. Amy Sze.
Beginning in 2013, HKUST offers HKUST Summer Music!, including HUMA2000A: A New Approach to Music Making, a new innovative SHSS course taught by Prof. Bright Sheng, along with courses taught by other HKUST music faculty and special guest artists offered through the HKUST Summer Institute.

Courses currently include:
HUMA1100: Music of the World 
HUMA1102: Enjoyment of Classical Music
HUMA2000A: A New Approach to Music Making
HUMA2103: Introduction to Music Composition
HUMA2104: Introduction to Music Theory
HUMA2105: Music, Drama, and Theatre

The program offers a wide variety of academic opportunities with an emphasis on individual curriculum choice. Common areas of student interest include: jazz, popular music, sacred music, concert repertoires, pedagogy, performance studies, urban music, composition, western art music, commercial music, recording industry, choral music, ethnography, theory, analysis, in addition to folk, country, and world musics. Recognition is given to the multiple cultures that coexist in contemporary society and to the many contexts and issues which shape musical expression and research. Members of the program are concerned with the scholarly study of composition, improvisation, aural cognition, mediation and reception, performance, analysis, speculative theory, as well as cultural studies and criticism.

Faculty members include jazz musicians, ethnomusicologists, classical performers, historians, theorists, and composers who are involved in their specialized areas of research and share a concern for the critical study of methodologies and creative procedures.

Degree Programs > Master's Degree

| Degree Programs | Master's Degree | Combined Master of Business Administration & Master of Arts | Doctor of Philosophy |


 To be considered for admission, an applicant must be a graduate of a recognized university, normally with at least a B (second class) standing, assessed over the last two years of academic study. Strength in musicianship, as well as knowledge of European music history, is expected of students entering the program.
In addition, applicants should have an undergraduate degree in music or a relevant major in the humanities or social sciences. If the undergraduate degree is in a subject other than music, applicants should have at least a minor concentration in music or the equivalent in training and experience (to be determined by the program’s graduate admissions committee). Applicants without the expected academic qualifications may be asked to make up deficiencies.
All applicants should submit:
  1. a statement of intent (no less than 500 words);
  2. two examples of scholarly writing; and,
  3. an updated résumé (curriculum vitae).
In addition to the above documents, applicants for the composition field must submit a composition portfolio. All complete files are assessed by the Music graduate program admissions committee.
The program accepts only those qualified applicants who are able to benefit from the faculty and facilities available.
MA Degree by Thesis, Ethnomusicology/Musicology Candidates for the MA degree by thesis must satisfactorily complete the following:

  1. Courses
    Music 5010 6.0: Problems and Methods of Musical Research plus FOUR additional half courses which differ substantially in subject area and/or methodological approach. These electives may include a course in a cognate discipline related to the student’s principal research interests, or a directed reading course.

  2. Language
    An examination testing the student’s reading knowledge of French, German, or other relevant second language.

  3. Thesis
    A thesis (generally 100 to 150 pages) on a topic approved by the program’s Graduate Executive Committee. The thesis project may require field work, or it may depend upon the use of archival or published materials. After formal submission of the thesis, an oral examination is held in accordance with the thesis regulations of the Faculty of Graduate Studies.
MA Degree by Thesis, Composition Candidates for the MA degree by thesis must satisfactorily complete the following:
  1. Courses
    Music 5005A 3.0: Seminar in Composition I (half course over two terms—year 1) and Music 5005B 3.0: Seminar in Composition II (half course over two terms—year 2), which combine private lessons and shared symposia; plus FOUR additional half courses offered by the program, including at least one of Music 5110 3.0: Early Twentieth-century Music: Form, Structure and Significance, Music 6210 3.0: Documentary and Interpretive Studies in Contemporary Music, Music 6250 3.0: Musical Analysis, or Music 6310 3.0: Musical Acoustics, Psychoacoustics and Formal Perception.

  2. Language
    No language examination is required.

  3. Thesis: Composition and Paper
    A composition and research paper on a topic approved by the program’s Graduate Executive Committee. The usual form of the composition thesis will be an extended musical score (or acoustic equivalent) in combination with a research paper. The research paper (generally 50 to 80 pages) will place the composition in the context of contemporary music with respect to its technical methods and style orientation. The principle guiding the composition thesis and its examination is that there must be distinct and extensive independent work which is defensible from the standpoints of its technical mastery, feasibility for performance, relation of means to aesthetic intention, and its composer’s awareness of sources and influences. After formal submission of the thesis, an oral examination is held in accordance with the thesis regulations of the Faculty of Graduate Studies.
MA Degree by Coursework, Ethnomusicology/ Musicology Candidates for the MA degree by coursework must satisfactorily complete the following:
  1. Courses
    Music 5010 6.0 plus SIX additional half courses which differ substantially in subject area and/or methodological approach. One of these half courses may be a directed reading course.

  2. Language
    An examination testing the student’s reading knowledge of French, German or other relevant second language.

  3. Research Paper
    A research paper (generally 50 to 80 pages) on a topic approved by the program’s graduate executive committee, written under the direction of a member of the graduate faculty in music. The paper will be graded by the faculty member directing the research and by a second reader, appointed by the Graduate Program Director
