Alongside the pioneering Bachelor of Music with Honours, the RNCM Undergraduate
School includes the ground-breaking Bachelor of Music with Honours in Popular
Music (the UK’s first four-year degree in this subject) and the Graduate Diploma
of the RNCM (a specialised programme for busy performers and intelligent musical
thinkers run in partnership with The University of Manchester). Revalidated in
2021, these programmes offer flexibility to create bespoke packages that fully
support future career aspirations. They also complement the RNCM Graduate
School, which provides a stimulating environment for advanced studies in
performance (including conducting), composition, musicology, music psychology,
and music education. Additionally, the College is home to Junior RNCM, a vibrant
community of gifted young musicians aged eight to 18. Each Saturday during term
time, they study with exceptional tutors, perform with like-minded people, learn
transferrable skills for life, and create a solid platform for further study at
a conservatoire or university.
