Music Graduate Student Association (MuGSA)

Welcome to the Music Graduate Student Association (MuGSA) website.  MuGSA is run by students for students.  All UB music graduate students are members of MuGSA, a branch of the Graduate Student Association. The GSA gives MuGSA an annual budget, which helps to subsidize students who present at or attend conferences, concert performances, and master classes.  The GSA provides additional funding opportunities for the purchase of equipment for the use by graduate students in the department.  At our monthly meetings, we discuss issues that concern us (including degree requirements, teaching assignments, faculty advisement, etc.), plan events to foster a better learning environment, and discuss funding requests.  All members are encouraged to attend the monthly meetings and vote on the issues and funding requests. Meetings are held on the first Wednesday of each month, 12:15 - 1:00pm in the Student Lounge on the second floor of Baird Hall.
