What you study	—	Chemistry Interdisciplinary Studies Music
What it is	You study chemistry — the science of how substances react, combine, and break down — covering theory and lab work. Unlike a general science program, you focus deeply on chemical principles rather than sampling many science fields. This suits students who find chemistry interesting in itself and want hands-on lab experience as a core part of their degree.	You study chemistry and music together over five years instead of the usual four. Chemistry covers atoms, reactions, and lab work; music covers performance, theory, and composition. This program suits people genuinely interested in both fields who want a full degree in each, not just a minor or elective courses alongside a major.

Ranges are what each university publishes, not guaranteed cutoffs, and limited-enrolment programs often admit above them. Confirm anything you are about to act on with the university; each column links to its source.
