Why study Graduate Diploma in Music at Goldsmiths
This Pre-Masters programme is aimed at postgraduates who need a year to develop their musical skills and academic English.

- You'll have the opportunity to familiarise yourself both with ways of working in British academic culture and in the standards required at Masters degree level.

- You can take it as a self-standing Diploma or as an ideal preparation for further postgraduate study. The Graduate Diploma in Music is designed to lead on to a Masters programme in the Department of Music at Goldsmiths.

- You can choose to specialise in an area of music that interests you, whether it be music performance, composition or musicology.

- If you wish to go on to study either at Goldsmiths or elsewhere in Britain you'll be given help and support in finding an appropriate programme.

- If you pass the programme at the required level (a pass in all modules with an overall score of 50% or more), you can progress onto one of our Masters programmes.
