The combined Bachelor of Music and Science program was created for students who would like to be able to work in either field and are interested in developing their skills in both disciplines. This five-year combined program leads to a degree in music (BMus) and in science (BSc) and opens the door to graduate studies. Music: The School of Music at the University of Ottawa is one of the country's leading music schools. It is the ideal place to nurture passion for all things musical and to pursue the rigorous training needed for an active and successful career in the field. University of Ottawa maintain close ties with renowned institutions such as the National Arts Centre (NAC) and the Ottawa Symphony Orchestra. This program boasts state-of-the-art music facilities and internationally recognized professors who perform around the globe and publish in leading academic journals. Although any of the programs can pave the way for a career in education, musicology, music journalism or arts administration, the Bachelor of Music (BMus) is designed specifically for students wishing to become career musicians. Admission to the BMus therefore requires that students audition on their main instrument and demonstrate an intermediate or advanced level. In addition, the University of Ottawa is one of the only institutions in the country to offer the possibility of combining the BMus program in performance with a major in science. Science: This program lets students explore different scientific disciplines and thus acquire a broad background in all the sciences. If along the way a student develops an interest in a particular field, they can transfer to the program in question.
