Dear Colleagues,

Please find below an annoucement for the French language taught Masters in
Ethnomusicology and the Anthropology of Dance.

EMAD
ETHNOMUSICOLOGY & THE ANTHROPOLOGY OF DANCE

The EMAD Masters programme is for:

- students with undergraduate degrees in anthropology, ethnomusicology,
dance studies, musicology, performing arts, physical education, and other
relevant fields in the human and social sciences.

- professionals in the fields of dance or music (life-long learning).


This two year programme admits students and professionals in year 1
(Master 1) or year 2 (Master 2). A strong core curriculum in anthropology
and related disciplines opens onto two tracks, a research path (most often
entailing ethnographic ‘fieldwork’), and a career path (generally
associated with an internship in a professional setting related to music
and/or dance).

The EMAD Masters programme aims:

    - to train ethnomusicologists and anthropologists of dance for careers
in research and/or culture-related fields of employment
    - to prepare students wishing to begin doctoral studies for a career
in research (university, research institutes)
    - to provide future professionals with an understanding of
institutional processes, policy-making and the ethical concerns of
putting music and dance on stage, by approaching culturally specific
relations and values through fieldwork
    - to provide students aiming for careers in cultural mediation, museum
work and archiving with means to reflect productively on the issues
involved
    - to provide dance and music professionals with the means to develop a
reflexive appreciation of their practice in the light of current
anthropological knowledge

The EMAD Masters programme is jointly organized by the Faculty of Human
Movement and Sports Studies, and Physical Education (UFR STAPS) at the
Blaise Pascal University Clermont-Ferrand 2 and by the Département
d’Ethnologie, Préhistoire, Ethnomusicologie (UFR SSA) at the Université
Paris Ouest Nanterre La Défense.

Administrative registration is possible at either university. While most
courses take place at the university of registration, occasional travel
between the two locations is to be anticipated.

Students specifically interested in ethnomusicology are strongly advised
to register at the Université Paris Ouest Nanterre.

Applications open until 15th September 2012
