The Sydney Conservatorium of Music holds quarterly online workshops designed to assist students interested in applying for admission into one of the postgraduate research degrees (Master of Music, Doctor of Musical Arts, PhD).

The workshops discuss application procedures, what our selection panels are looking for in research proposals, ways in which you might seek to answer research questions through your artistic practice, and how to approach potential supervisors. Workshop participants should be prepared to talk about their research plans with other participants.
