PhD Programs in Conducting

Conducting programs often involve score study, music history, technique and theory courses. Whether students choose to focus on an instrumental or choral repertoire, their coursework teaches them how to form and lead ensembles.

The PhD is a doctoral degree, specifically called a "doctor of philosophy" degree. This is misleading because PhD holders are not necessarily philosophers (unless they earned their degree in philosophy!). That said, PhD recipients are able to engage in thought experiments, reason about problems, and solve problems in sophisticated ways.
