The Certificate in Music and Wellbeing provides an interdisciplinary approach in which students from a wide range of academic backgrounds have the opportunity to engage in courses that promote and explore contexts related to music and wellbeing. 

What you will learn
The selection of courses in this certificate will allow students to participate in music making, music appreciation, music pedagogy, and music research in order to explore the nature and intersections of music and wellbeing as they occur in physical, mental, physiological, and psychological spaces and places. 

Careers
The connection of the fine arts to other disciplines and professional programs (i.e. medicine, law) is highly valued. A music certificate related to wellbeing would enhance student credentials as those who have musical skills (i.e. fine motor skills), musical knowledge, and transferable skills (i.e. critical and creative thinking) are well-positioned for post-graduate degrees and employment.
