Research - IMHSD

Institute for Music in Human and Social Development (IMHSD)

The Institute for Music in Human and Social Development brings together research and practice from a range of disciplines including music, psychology, informatics, sociology and medicine.

The aims of the institute are:

  • To strengthen the theoretical and scientific basis of therapeutic, educational and social practice in music
  • To support the development of methodologies for intervention in these areas
  • To be an active partner in the implementation of therapeutic, educational and social development programs related to music
  • To investigate the complexities of musical intelligence and musical communication


We invite expressions of interest from those interested in conducting research in such areas, including from students wishing to undertake postgraduate study.

Please explore these pages or contact us for more information about the IMHSD.
