Introduction to Program: | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Nowhere else in the world can the interweaving of language, psychology and western music be found. This combination provides a solid foundation into career paths that value interdisciplinary links already established within the graduate degree holders. Understandings of western culture, history, psychology, and philosophy are bridged within all three overlapping disciplines whilst simultaneously developing a solid musical platform from which one can express themselves artistically and creatively. A large pool of customization remains within the course structure. Students can elect to specialise as a music teacher or choral director / conductor within the music programme. They can elect to study film, short story or teaching from the English programme; and specialise in French, Hindi, Kannada, Sanskrit or Tamil languages. Literature is an important cultural product of a society or a nation. Hence, the study of literature offers insights into the worldviews of different societies. This course begins with traditional British literature to the present. The course also introduces students to other literatures namely American world, postcolonial and the Indian literature in translation. The course also introduces students to interdisciplinary studies in culture and gender helping them to gain insights from other disciplines like history, anthropology, sociology etc. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Examination And Assesments | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
As music is the universal language, we approach its education in a similar way: as a language of intersubjective experience. Although this classification makes it easier to relate to on a surface level, when we peer deeper into what this language actually comprises, it begins to take on a different shape and nature to what we generally understand as a traditional language. This global language requires sensitivity to all elements of expression and thus we approach its teaching and learning from an ontological perspective. We accept that every student will approach their learning individually, and in relation to their previous experiences, and as such adopt a learner-centred pedagogical design. Our pedagogy is underpinned by the philosophical dialogues that branch from phenomenological thought, as our students are beings-in-the-world which actively participate within their environments to build upon their experiences as they learn. By looking at what aspects of music interact with the experience one has of interacting with and in it, pedagogic layers across the entire spectrum of being emerge. As such we can approach teaching and learning musical skills through domains such as “speaking” the language through performance and articulating clearly through elocution; reading, interpreting and writing western notation; listening deeply using aural mechanics and close examination of interpretation; and comprehension (harmony); this language also requires a deep sensitivity to other contextualising areas across interpersonal and intercultural domains such as phenomenology, autonomous thinking, practice approaches, performance anxiety, emotional connection, interpretation, leadership, pedagogy, history, sociology, effective citizenship, cultural values and culturally sustainable practices. Generally, teaching and learning music uses multiple learning models in tandem to assess each learner individually. Using a combination of Bloom's Revised Taxonomy of Cognitive Development (2001); Krathwohl's Taxonomy of Affective Development (1964); and Harrow's Taxonomy of Psychomotor Development (1972), can grant tremendous insight into the multitudes of ways learners compose themselves. These taxonomies are used to evaluate how students think, feel and act when they engage with music using different intelligences or sensibilities. Such sensibilities, thoughts, skill sets, and feelings are part of the pedagogic dialogue. Tasks can be geared to allow for educators to learn and engage with how individuals emotionally respond to their individual learning style and the musical phenomenon. The skills of articulating emotions through both word and musical practices are important components of artistic expression. The typical music educator finds such emotional discipline common knowledge as it is safe to assume most have experienced empathy. To a performer, emotional understanding becomes the vehicle that modulates their own theory- and practice-based skills. For instance, if a difficult musical passage is encountered and not fully known whilst practicing, it often becomes a point of anxiety during a performance. However, once the passage has been mastered, it becomes fun to perform as one gains control over the movements required of the passage. To engage in effective pedagogical dialogue, a music educator should see each learner as an individual, as each student brings different experiences to the classroom. The learning outcome for the music program is to empower each student by showing them the multiplicities of ways they (a) learn, (b) relate with and to music, and (c) use music as a vehicle of self-expression. Such an approach assists individual students to navigate through the jungle of finding meaning within their own experiences. With such a mode of thought, it can be said that everything we do is a combination of thinking, feeling, and moving. Since these actions occur throughout all activities undertaken, these taxonomies are used as the underpinning scaffolds that contextualise assessment criteria. Throughout the duration of the course, neurological connections of these three domains are unpacked and applied to aspects of musical performance. When students understand which parts of the brain are working for what means, a framework for critical self-reflection can be assessed. Such assessments taking an experiential-reflective approach use English and Psychology to understand Music (and vice-versa) to determine individual emotional growth of each student. Practical courses within the department take such knowledge and focus on their physical applications throughout the skill sets. Such an approach links all three taxonomies underpinning both theoretical and practical aspects of English, Psychology and Western Music. It is with these thoughts in mind that the department of music creates and aligns each and every assessment criterion within our courses. |

Course Objectives/Course Description |
|
The Additional English course is offered as a second language course and seeks to introduce the students to the nuances of English literature in its varied forms and genres. The students who choose Additional English are generally proficient in the English language. Hence, instead of focusing on introducing them to language, challenging texts in terms of ideas, form, and technique are chosen. Additional English as a course is designed for students in place of a regional language. Non-Resident Indians (NRIs), foreign nationals and students who have not taken Hindi, Kannada, Tamil or French at the Plus 2 or Class XII levels are eligible to choose Additional English. The course is taught for students from different streams, namely, BA, BSc, BCom, and BBA in the first year and for BA, BSc and BCom (Regular) in the second year. The first year syllabus is an attempt by the Department of English, Christ University to recognize and bring together the polyphonic Indian and Indian sub-continental voices in English in English translation for the Additional English students of the first year. This effort aims to familiarize the students with regional literatures in translation, Indian Writing in English (IWE) and literatures from Pakistan, Nepal and Srilanka, thereby, enabling the students to learn more about Indian culture and ethos through writings from different regions of the country. We have tried to represent in some way or the other the corners of India and the Indian sub-continent in this microcosmic world of short stories, poems and essays
There is a prescribed text bookfor the first year students, compiled by the Department of English, Christ University and intended for private circulation. The first semester has a variety of writing from India, Pakistan and Nepal. The various essays, short stories and poems deal with various socio-economic, cultural and political issues that are relevant to modern day India and the Indian sub-continent and will enable students to comprehend issues of identity-politics, caste, religion, class, and gender. All of the selections either in the manner of their writing, the themes they deal with or the ideologies that govern them are contemporary in relevance and sensibility, whether written by contemporary writers or earlier writers. An important addition to this syllabus is the preponderance of North-Eastern writing which was hitherto not well represented. Excerpts from interviews, autobiographical writings, sports and city narratives are added to this section to introduce students to the varied genres of literature. The objectives of this course are to expose students to the rich literary and cultural diversity of Indian literatures to sensitise students on the social, political, historical and cultural ethos that has shaped the nation- INDIA to enable to grasp and appreciate the variety and abundance of Indian writing, of which this compilation is just a passing glance to learn and appreciate India through association of ideas in the texts and the external contexts (BhashaUtsav will be an intrinsic help in this endeavour)

Course Description
This course is taught in the second year for students from different streams, namely BA, BSc
and BCom. If the first year syllabus is an attempt by the Department of English, Christ
University to recognize and bring together the polyphonic Indian voices in English and Indian
regional literatures in translation for the Additional English students of the first year, the
second year syllabus intends to take that project a little further and open up the engagement
of the students to texts from across the world. The syllabus - selection of texts will
concentrate on readings from South Asian, Latin American, Australian, Canadian, and Afro-
American. It will voice subaltern concerns of identity, gender, race, ethnicity and problems of
belongingness experienced by humanity all over the globe.
The syllabus will extend the concerns of nation and nationality and marginalization,
discussed within the Indian context to a more inclusive and wider global platform. We have
consciously kept out ‘mainstream’ writers and concentrated on the voices of the subalterns
from across the world. There is an implicit recognition in this project that though the aspects
of marginalization and the problems facing subalterns are present across cultures and
nations, the experiences, expressions and reflections are specific to each race and culture.
The course will address these nuances and specificities and enable our students to become
more aware and sensitive to life and reality around them. This will equip the students, who
are global citizens, to understand not just the Indian scenario, but also situate themselves
within the wider global contexts and understand the spaces they will move into and negotiate
in their future.
There is a prescribed text book Blends: Voices from Margins for the second year students,
compiled by the Department of English, Christ University and intended for private circulation. Course Objectives
The course objectives are
to enable students to look at different cultures through Literature
to help students develop an understanding of subaltern realities and identity politics
to inculcate literary sensibility/taste among students across disciplines
to improve language skills –speaking, reading, writing and listening
to equip the students with tools for developing lateral thinking
to equip students with critical reading and thinking habits
to reiterate the study skills and communication skills they developed in the previous
year and extend it. |

Course Outcome |
|
The students will become more culturally, ethically, socially and politically aware citizens of the world.. it will enable students to become aware of the nuances of cultures, ethnicities and other diversity around them and become sensitive towards them. |

Languages have their own grammar and syntax, yet they are also encased (and articulated) within their own musical vehicle. For instance, each sentence contains intonations, rhythms, phrases, resonances, etc. This musical vehicle is governed by the way a particular culture understands harmony. The laws of harmony involve understanding the construction of musical structures and the principles of connection that govern them. All western tonal music played is based on the laws of harmony, regardless of form or style. This course builds from MUS231 Music Foundations II. Course Objectives • This course helps one explore harmony by grasping the internal structure of western music. • Students will learn to compose for any combination of western instruments/voices in four parts. • This course will provide a fundamental toolbox for exploring western classical tonal styles. • Materials learned throughout this course are practically applicable to all other music courses. |
|
Course Outcome |
|
By the end of this course, students will be able to: • Compose music with four independent melodic lines using 5th species counterpoint. • Compose for any combination of western instruments/voices in four parts from a bass line or melody. • Differentiate between harmonies that play tonic, dominant or subdominant roles. • Apply harmonic techniques to pivot, expand and modulate between musical keys. |

A Major is a student's practical music specialization. It is the most important course among all music courses as it is the medium through which musical communication occurs. This course offers small-group and one-on-one interaction between instructor and learner. These interactions help in efficiently determining the theoretical and practical level of each student. The instructor will develop individual course plans to suit each student’s needs and requirements. The Major is a six-part course that will be completed throughout the three years of study in the music program. The course is divided into Solo and Ensemble Units. The former unit concentrates on developing individual techniques, the latter focusing on general mentalities and nonverbal communication skills that contribute to successful group performances in differing piano ensemble settings (4-hands, 6-hands, multiple pianos, etc.). |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Course Outcome |

Course Objectives/Course Description |
|
This course is taught in the second year for students from different streams, namely BA, BSc and B Com. If the first year syllabus is an attempt by the Department of English, Christ University to recognize and bring together the polyphonic Indian voices in English and Indian regional literatures in translation for the Additional English students of the first year, the second year syllabus intends to take that project a little further and open up the engagement of the students to texts from across the world. The syllabus - selection of texts will concentrate on readings from South Asian, Latin American, Australian, Canadian, and Afro-American. It will voice subaltern concerns of identity, gender, race, ethnicity and problems of belongingness experienced by humanity all over the globe. The syllabus will extend the concerns of nation and nationality and marginalization, discussed within the Indian context to a more inclusive and wider global platform. We have consciously kept out ‘mainstream’ writers and concentrated on the voices of the subalterns from across the world. There is an implicit recognition in this project that though the aspects of marginalization and the problems facing subalterns are present across cultures and nations, the experiences, expressions and reflections are specific to each race and culture. The course will address these nuances and specificities and enable our students to become more aware and sensitive to life and reality around them. This will equip the students, who are global citizens, to understand not just the Indian scenario, but also situate themselves within the wider global contexts and understand the spaces they will move into and negotiate in their future.
There is a prescribed text book Blends: Voices from Margins for the second year students, compiled by the Department of English, Christ University and intended for private circulation. The course objectives are · to introduce the students to look at different cultures through Literature · to help students develop an understanding of subaltern realities and identity politics · to inculcate literary sensibility/taste among students across disciplines · to improve language skills –speaking, reading, writing and listening · to equip the students with tools for developing lateral thinking · to equip students with critical reading and thinking habits · to enable them to grasp and appreciate the variety and abundance of subaltern writing, of which this compilation is just a glimpse · to actively engage with the world as a cultural and social space (to be facilitated through proactive CIAs which help students to interact and engage with the realities they face everyday and have come across in these texts) · to learn and appreciate India and its place in the world through association of ideas in the texts and the external contexts
· to reiterate the study skills and communication skills they developed in the previous year and extend it. |
|
Course Outcome |
|
Learning Outcome · The course will equip students to be more proactive ‘global citizens’ keeping with the orientation they receive in all the four semesters. |

Course Objectives/Course Description |

Languages have their own grammar and syntax, yet they are also encased (and articulated) within their own musical vehicle. For instance, each sentence contains intonations, rhythms, phrases, resonances, etc. This musical vehicle is governed by the way a particular culture understands harmony. The laws of harmony involve understanding the construction of musical structures and the principles of connection that govern them. All western tonal music played is based on the laws of harmony, regardless of form or style. Course Objectives • This course helps one explore harmony by grasping the internal structure of western music. • Students will learn to compose for any combination of western instruments/voices in four parts. • This course will provide a fundamental toolbox for exploring all western musical styles. • Materials learned throughout this course are practically applicable to all other music courses. |
|
Course Outcome |
|
By the end of this course, students will be able to: • Harmonise any melodic or bass line using traditional, chromatic and modal techniques in four parts. • Create their own tonal matrix using the 12-tone technique of the Second Viennese School. • Create relative and parallel groupings of any Pentatonic, Hexatonic or Heptatonic scale or mode. • Convert between traditional, modern and contemporary analytical systems of music. |

Having prepared the students to understand and appreciate all the forms of literature, this paper introduces two important works from Tamil literary history, Kalithogaifrom Sangam literature and Thirukkural from post-Sangam literature. While the former deals with the complex human relationships through its dramatic narration, the latter speaks about the eternal concerns of man: virtue, wealth and love. For the prose part an important work of fiction in Indian literature Ghatasrarddham, a novella by U R Ananthamurthy is included. It looks at the inability of a traditional society to deal with an extraordinary situation in a woman’s life and the way it passes the judgment on her. As an attempt to understand how literary works have been made into films, a study of Indian popular and art films is introduced. |

The abnormal psychology course aims to sensitize the students about the existence of abnormal behaviour in order to develop greater social responsibility. The course coupled with the social psychology course of the previous semester and other courses from sociology, specifically with regard to social problems, would create a holistic understanding of the individual and their society. Further, the course would enable the student to develop a cultural understanding of abnormal behaviour within the Indian context and specifically to Bangalore. In Bangalore, there is a noticeable increase in the mental health issues faced by the population and the need for mental health practitioners who understand the difference between abnormal behaviour and distressed behaviour is a major requirement and the course would be the first step towards that direction. This course has been conceptualized in order to help the students develop an understanding of the historical development of the study of abnormal behaviour. The specific course aim are to create an understanding of the criteria and perspectives in abnormal behaviour, common classification systems, and range of disorders including anxiety disorders, mood disorders, schizophrenia, somatic symptom disorders generally observed at childhood and adolescence, and personality disorders.

Course Description: This paper is informed by David Damrosch’s understanding that world literature is not a canon of Western master works but a mode of cross cultural reading. So the selection reflects similar themes of gender, race, being responsible citizen in oppressive conditions which the students have encountered in their earlier semester.

Course Objectives/Course Description |
|
General Description: This paper will re-visit the two popular Indian epics – the Mahabharata and the Ramayana. The Mahabharata and the Ramayana are not mere literary texts in India; no Indian reader reads them for the first time. As Prof Anantamurthy points out they function as languages and prompt new narratives in literary traditions. The paper intends to read the critical discussions and creative re-presentations of the epics – The Mahabharata and the Ramayana. The essays will probe the posited meanings in the tellings of the epics. The other two modules will look at the creative interpretations, re-presentations of certain episodes, marginal characters from the epics. As we read, discuss the re-visited tellings of the epics, we would need a specific telling to refer to. C Rajagopalachari’s telling of the Mahabharata, The Epic and The Ramayana can be considered as a reference point. Pertinent episodes can be read or discussed in class or if time permits the entire narrative can be read/discussed in class.

The course also introduces students to computer assisted tests and experiments. Research Methods-I: This course is a capstone experience for psychology undergraduates, in which students identify a research topic, conduct comprehensive literature reviews, and then develop a substantial written small empirical research project. The paper aims to help students collaborate and complete psychological research projects with their peers. The program is designed to enable students to complete a group research project under the supervision of a faculty. The students would develop and defend the research proposal and they are expected to conduct the research and submit the final research report. The Research report will be in the form of a professional journal article manuscript, though it is not required to submit it to a journal. Students are expected to do a presentation of the research findings as a poster or oral presentation at the undergraduate research conference. |
