Honours
Prospective Honours students should note that the Honours program occupies the full 48 credit points of 4th year. It is therefore not possible for Honours students to take a second major within the scope of the BMus. Prospective Honours students intending to take a Minor in addition to the Major in Musicology should consult with the Program Leader of Musicology early in their candidature to plan their degree pathway.
