The Music Generation Limerick City Scholarship provides funding for a three-year full-time PhD at Mary Immaculate College (MIC), University of Limerick. The PhD scholar will study the implementation and delivery of the Music Generation Limerick City (MGLC) programme with a particular focus on music programmes within areas of social regeneration. The study aims to provide valuable insights and understandings into music education within regeneration communities in Limerick City, addressing a knowledge gap in Ireland on research into the role of music in such communities.
