Selection criteria:
Applications will be reviewed and the award made by a panel including Black, Asian and minority ethnicity academics associated with the Department.
The fee waiver is open to Home applicants identifying as Black, Asian, or as a member of a minority ethnicity. There is a dramatic under-representation of Black, Asian, and minority ethnic music scholars at the academic professional level. The same is true throughout British academia. This full-tuition fee-waiver scholarship supports a student who intends to progress through postgraduate study and into an academic position. Like all our students, the successful candidate will benefit from the Department's open, innovative, and supportive environment. They will also receive support from the Goldsmiths Careers Service, and will be offered extensive support in developing and completing an application towards fully-funded PhD study.
Potential candidates must first apply for and be offered a place on any of our Music Masters programmes. Candidates should indicate at the point of programme application that they also intend to be considered for the scholarship.
Once an offer of a place has been made (conditional or unconditional), candidates can apply for the scholarship.
Portfolios must be submitted to Tom Perchard. However, potential candidates must first apply for and be offered a place on any of our Music Masters programmes.
How to apply
Once an offer of a place has been made (conditional or unconditional), candidates can apply for the scholarship.
To apply for the scholarship you will need to submit:
A 300-word statement describing the broad areas of musical work and research that you intend to explore at postgraduate level, including Masters work, and, if applicable, subsequent MPhil/PhD level study. This statement will not itself be formally evaluated, but will function as an overview of your interests and potential path into the academic profession.
A portfolio of work, the contents of which will vary according to the programme concerned. Applicants to MA pathways should submit a selection of 3-5 written pieces. At least two of these pieces should be academic essays of at least 2,000 words in length. The remaining pieces may be writings on music of any other form: journalistic, critical, reflective, and so on. Work on music in other media formats (video, audio-visual) can also be considered. Applicants to MMus pathways should submit a substantial portfolio of their creative practice. This may include examples of one or more of the following: performance, songwriting, production, documentation of audio-visual and/or site-specific/installation works, compositions/scores. These examples may be presented in whatever media is appropriate.
