Music at SFU is an interdisciplinary program focused on composition and music technology research. You will work in labs for electroacoustic composition, and produce original compositions that are performed by professional musicians. After school, you could go on to work as a composer, performer or teacher in all musical genres.
The Music program in the Faculty of Communication, Art and Technology is one of the performing and fine arts programs offered by the School for Contemporary Arts. This program is offered at the Vancouver campus.
The bachelor of fine arts (BFA) with a major in music is a flexible program that offers several options for the music student to pursue an interest in composition or electroacoustic music. The program takes full advantage of the opportunities to experience and study other art forms that are provided in the School for the Contemporary Arts.
At the upper division, students complete one of two streams: composition or electroacoustic. The requirements at the lower division are the same for all streams but students are advised to select their chosen stream as early as second year, so that the proper prerequisites can be completed.
Students whose interest in music is related primarily to its historical, critical, or theoretical aspects should consider the Visual Culture and Performance Studies major program which leads to a bachelor of arts degree. Contact the school's general office for information about entry to specific music courses.
