哲学博士-音乐疗法

学习如何使用音乐来支持情绪复杂的人的发展和幸福
A Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) degree involves original and sustained research, mentored by an academic supervisor. It's an opportunity to make new discoveries, address some of the big issues of our time, challenge yourself, and develop a mix of transferable and specialised skills. Learn how to use music to support the development and wellbeing of people with complex emotional, intellectual, physical or social needs. You'll get a comprehensive grounding in music therapy. Study the theory and put it into practice in a clinical or social community setting. Then take what you've learned from your practical experience and apply that to your research project. Studying at the New Zealand School of Music (NZSM), you'll learn from dedicated staff with many years' experience as music therapists. If you have a mature and compassionate attitude, curiosity and a knack for critical thinking, and a passion for practical, creative music-making then this programme is for you. You'll learn from valuable community placements in settings such as special schools, inclusive mainstream schools, pediatric units of hospitals and adolescent mental health services. You might also be hosted in elder care facilities, hospices and community units for adults with neurological disorders and mental health challenges. These valuable placements are also a chance to build the professional networks that will help advance your career.
