PRACTICUM OPTION
The practicum program is available to Music students in Third
and/or Fourth Year. The program is essentially a work term during
which students are employed in projects directly related to their
musical interests. The Faculty of Music will assist students to
find employment, but the primary responsibility for locating
employment rests with the student. Salary arrangements are
negotiated by the employer and the student. Credit for MU350
and MU450 is granted on the basis of a final report from the
practicum supervisor who is usually the employer. No grade will be
reported but rather the designation credit or non-credit.

 Regulations
    1. Application for the practicum should be made well in advance
       of the March pre-registration prior to the academic year in
       which the practicum is to be taken. Applicants should
       include a brief written description of the proposed project,
       prepared in consultation with a member of the faculty.
    2. Applicants will be considered for the practicum during any
       academic term.
    3. Students approved for the practicum will register for the
       full three terms: spring, fall and winter.
    4. A practicum project may cover two academic terms of
       part-time study and work.
    5. The number of credits in which a student may be enrolled
       concurrently with practicum shall depend on the amount of
       time required by the work term. Normally the work assignment
       is full time; however, a minimum of 15 to 20 hours per week
       over one term, or 8 to 10 hours per week over two terms,
       will usually satisfy the requirements.
    6. Students are required to complete a report on their
       practicum assignment.
    7. Students who elect the practicum must complete all academic
       requirements for the program in which they are registered.
