Combined Major in Music and Computer Science

The School of Music and the Department of Computer Science have designed a combined program leading to either a Bachelor of Fine Arts or a Bachelor of Science degree.

Students are advised that because of restricted facilities and staff, it may be necessary to limit the offering of this Program. The application date for the first year of this program for entry in September is March 31, however applications received before May 15 will be considered if places are still available. Applicants must make separate application for acceptance into the first year of the Combined Program. See <finearts.uvic.ca/music/cscmusic/form/>. Students will be admitted to the program at the end of first year. When all first year requirements have been met, the application date for September entry to the second year of this program is May 1 and the document deadline is July 1.
