What Youll study
You will build on your musical and academic skills, and have the opportunity to explore areas that may be new and inspiring. The flexibility in this course allows you to develop a broad understanding of the music field.
The Diploma of Music is a stand-alone tertiary qualification and a direct pathway to the Bachelor of Music degree. All completed Diploma units are credited, and you can apply to continue your studies as a second-year Bachelor of Music student.
