Thesis Criteria

The M.A. thesis demonstrates familiarity with previous work in the field and the ability to carry out research and organize results. It must be written in good literate style.

• An exhaustive review of work in the particular field is not required, nor is original scholarship necessarily expected.

Length: Typically between 80-100 pages (excluding musical examples and other illustrations). It cannot exceed 150 pages in total, including all preliminary pages.

Thesis Evaluation Criteria

1. Grasp of subject, powers of criticism and awareness of previous work.
2. Resourcefulness, alertness to significance of findings.
3. Diligence, care, technical skill in research.
4. Organization of findings.
5. Quality of presentation (coherence, lucidity, grammar, style, freedom from typographical errors).

Thesis Proposal Submission Deadline

Submit your thesis proposal form ( M.A./M.Mus. Thesis Proposal Form) to the Area, after approval by the supervisor, at any time.

Format of the Thesis Proposal

• The thesis proposal should include the following sections (2 single-spaced pages, twelve-point font, 2 cm margins):
  • Introduction / Motivation
  • Previous Work
  • Proposed Research / Methodology
  • Contributions / Summary
• References (1 single-spaced page, twelve-point font, 2 cm margins)

Evaluation of the Proposal

The proposal will be evaluated by all professors of the Area. Corrections and suggested revisions, if necessary, will be communicated to the candidate by each professor and this process may have several iterations, until the document is deemed acceptable. At that point, the Area Coordinator will sign the MA Thesis Proposal Form and the candidate will submit the form and proposal to the Music Graduate Studies Office (Graduatestudies.music [at] mcgill.ca).

Initial Submission Steps

Your supervisor may find some useful tips for selecting examiners onthe Graduate Supervision website.

• At least two months before initial submission:

Students must submit their 鈥淚ntent to Submit Thesis鈥� through myThesis.

You will be asked to provide your thesis title, abstract, length of thesis and date of submission.
You will also be asked to nominate examiners (please discuss the examiners with your supervisor(s) prior to submitting the names). Once this is submitted, the request will be sent to your supervisor(s) and Associate Dean of Graduate Studies in Music for approval. Then an invitation to the examiner will be sent through myThesis for the examiner to accept or decline. This whole approval process must be completed prior to your submission date.

Verify MyProgress to ensure that all components of the program are complete or components of the program are marked as 鈥淐omplete鈥� or 鈥淚n Progress鈥�.

• Day of submission:
