MUSE is the first undergraduate journal publishing student work in music scholarship at UCLA. A student-run organization, MUSE aims to allow undergraduate students an outlet to share their academic work with a broader public. Our goal is to publish scholarship over a wide range of music-related subjects, including but not limited to disciplines such as historical musicology, ethnomusicology, music analysis, popular music, sound studies, pedagogy, performance studies, critical theory, aesthetics, gender and sexuality, and cultural studies.
