The Interdisciplinary Topics in Music Research (INTOMUSIC) Summer School, taught by leading experts at the Centre of Excellence in Music, Mind, Body and Brain, provides a comprehensive understanding of music’s impact on individuals and society.
Lectures and workshops cover a range of applied topics, including music and embodiment, music and emotions, music information retrieval, and relationships between music, health, and wellbeing. A strong focus on real-world applications and the latest research in music science not only builds academic skills but prepares students for careers in music, health, technology, and beyond.
Participation in the 4th Joint Seminar on Music, Sport and Health is included.
