Dean's Statement

I am happy to welcome you to the 2022-2023 academic year.

Below is the Undergraduate Academic Calendar.  It provides a wealth of information about the Faculty - its instructors, course offerings, student services, financial support, and much more.  Over the past few years, the pandemic has deeply affected our modes of course delivery; we fervently hope that the coming year will allow us to return fully to in-person music teaching and learning; practicing, rehearsing, and performing; researching and writing.  Please reach out to the Registrar's Office with any questions.

We are excited to have you engage in the many activities that underpin the student-centred learning community at the Faculty of Music.  We offer exciting opportunities to engage with new ideas and repertories that will expand your knowledge of the rich range of musics across the world as we strive to strengthen inclusion and belonging at the Faculty.  We invite you to explore our fantastic courses in composition, music education, ethnomusicology, music history, and music theory; classical music and jazz performance, music and health, music technology, and popular music studies.  There is something for every student at the Faculty, and you may be excited to learn more about an area you're unfamiliar with.

In closing, we are delighted that you have chosen to study music at U of T.  Our enormously dedicated staff and faculty work extremely hard to offer you the finest education possible. The Faculty of Music Undergraduate Association provides a channel for communication with the leadership at U of T Music, as well as a supportive community and exciting activities throughout the year; we encourage you to get to know your fellow students outside the classroom and to explore the amazing cultural offerings in the Greater Toronto Area.  

Sending you all our warmest wishes for a wonderful year ahead.

Sincerely,

Ellie M. Hisama, Ph.D.
Dean and Professor
Faculty of Music, University of Toronto
