Master of Music Performance (by Research)

Comments about Master of Music Performance (by Research) - On Campus - Melbourne - Victoria

• Course description
  A Master by Research degree which allows students to further extend their practical and theoretical performance knowledge and skills.
  
  Successful completion of all courses in the School demands self-discipline, commitment and perseverance, all of which relate to a positive attitude towards the study program. Attendance is one factor taken into consideration for assessment and a minimum attendance rate of 80% is a hurdle requirement for all students. More than 20% of classes missed is deemed as a non-pass. Where extenuating circumstances cause attendance to fall below the requirements, this may constitute grounds for Special Consideration for which a formal application can be made.
  
  To this end, attendance at all classes, scheduled rehearsals and performances is regarded as essential and students are obliged to have a clear understanding of the School’s policy regarding attendance.
  
  • Students are expected to attend and participate in all classes.
  • Absence due to illness in excess of two days requires a medical certificate, which must be submitted to the Student Administrator.
  • Absence for any reason including illness must be reported in advance where possible to the VCA and Music Student Centre.
  • The request for absence in excess of one day must be submitted to the Head of School in writing and include the reasons for the request.
