Music Department Postgraduate Handbook (2014-2015)

                                              HEAD	
  OF	
  DEPARTMENT’S	
  WELCOME	
  
	
  
In	
  this,	
  my	
  first	
  year	
  as	
  Head	
  of	
  Department,	
  I	
  am	
  very	
  pleased	
  to	
  welcome	
  all	
  new	
  and	
  returning	
  
postgraduate	
   students	
   to	
   what	
   promises	
   to	
   be	
   a	
   very	
   stimulating	
   and	
   rewarding	
   year	
   in	
   Music	
   at	
  
Maynooth.	
  One	
  of	
  the	
  qualities	
  of	
  the	
  Department	
  that	
  has	
  impressed	
  me	
  most	
  since	
  arriving	
  is	
  the	
  
energy	
   and	
   commitment	
   surrounding	
   research.	
   My	
   colleagues	
   care	
   passionately	
   about	
   their	
  
research	
  both	
  as	
  a	
  way	
  of	
  enriching	
  their	
  teaching	
  and	
  as	
  a	
  contribution	
  to	
  knowledge	
  and	
  creative	
  
endeavour	
   in	
   the	
   University	
   and	
   beyond.	
   2014/15	
   will	
   see	
   book	
   launches	
   by	
   members	
   of	
   staff,	
   an	
  
exciting	
  roster	
  of	
  visiting	
  speakers	
  and	
  performers,	
  and	
  special	
  events	
  designed	
  to	
  initiate	
  exchange	
  
with	
   researchers	
   in	
   other	
   departments	
   as	
   part	
   of	
   our	
   commitment	
   to	
   the	
   increasingly	
   important	
  
interdisciplinary	
  dimension	
  of	
  research	
  in	
  the	
  University.	
  None	
  of	
  this	
  could	
  be	
  counted	
  as	
  a	
  success,	
  
though,	
   without	
   your	
   participation.	
   As	
   composers,	
   musicologists	
   and	
   performers,	
   you,	
   our	
  
postgraduate	
   students,	
   are	
   essential	
   to	
   the	
   research	
   community	
   of	
   the	
   Department	
   and	
   of	
   the	
  
University.	
   Your	
   engagement	
   with	
   supervisors	
   disseminates	
   their	
   knowledge	
   and	
   enhances	
   their	
  
own	
  research;	
  your	
  own	
  research	
  broadens	
  and	
  deepens	
  the	
  fund	
  of	
  knowledge	
  and	
  creativity	
  in	
  the	
  
Department	
   and	
   beyond;	
   and	
   many	
   of	
   you	
   in	
   turn	
   pass	
   learning	
   along	
   as	
   tutors	
   and	
   teachers.	
   I	
   urge	
  
you	
   to	
   seize	
   the	
   opportunity	
   to	
   participate	
   in	
   our	
   research	
   community	
   and	
   take	
   full	
   advantage	
   of	
  
what	
   it	
   offers	
   for	
  your	
   own	
   development	
   as	
   scholar,	
   as	
   creative	
  practitioner,	
   as	
   individual.	
   Whether	
  
joining	
  one	
  of	
  our	
  ensembles,	
  presenting	
  at	
  	
  one	
  of	
  our	
  student	
  colloquia,	
  or	
  simply	
  participating	
  in	
  
the	
  conversation	
  during	
  one	
  our	
  research	
  seminars,	
  your	
  contribution	
  is	
  most	
  welcome	
  and	
  you	
  will	
  
find	
  the	
  community	
  here	
  welcoming,	
  supportive	
  and	
  collegial.	
  	
  
	
  
This	
  Handbook	
  is	
  designed	
  to	
  offer	
  you	
  an	
  introduction	
  to	
  what	
  happens	
  in	
  the	
  Department	
  and	
  the	
  
important	
  role	
  you,	
  as	
  a	
  postgraduate	
  student,	
  play	
  within	
  it.	
  I	
  hope	
  you	
  find	
  the	
  Handbook	
  useful.	
  	
  
Please	
   do	
   read	
   it	
   carefully,	
   even	
   if	
   you’re	
   a	
   returning	
   student	
   and	
   think	
   you	
   know	
   your	
   way	
   around	
  
–	
   there	
   have	
   been	
   a	
   few	
   changes	
   in	
   policy	
   and	
   personnel.	
   You	
   should	
   also	
   regularly	
   check	
   for	
  
amendments	
                       and	
         updates	
             within	
            our	
       shared	
                space	
          on	
        Moodle:	
  
https://2015.moodle.maynoothuniversity.ie/login/index.php.	
   Useful	
   Department	
   news	
   and	
  
information	
  also	
  appears	
  on	
  our	
  website:
https://www.maynoothuniversity.ie/music.	
  
	
  
The	
   Department	
   is	
   unmatched	
   in	
   the	
   University	
   for	
   the	
   liveliness	
   and	
   range	
   of	
   the	
   events	
   it	
  
organises,	
   and	
   we	
   are	
   justly	
   proud	
   of	
   the	
   contribution	
   it	
   makes	
   to	
   the	
   University,	
   the	
   town	
   of	
  
Maynooth	
   and	
   the	
   region.	
   In	
   addition	
   to	
   many	
   and	
   varied	
   ensemble	
   events,	
   I	
   would	
   draw	
   your	
  
attention	
   to	
   two	
   regular	
   events	
   in	
   particular:	
   the	
   Thursday	
   lunchtime	
   concert	
   series

   the

   showing	
   how	
   attitudes	
   to

intertwined
