The SysMus conferences ( International Conference of Students of Systematic Musicology ) are annual student-run events designed to allow advanced students in the fields of systematic musicology and music science – particularly those studying for PhDs or completing Masters' degrees – to meet and discuss their research . Keynote speakers include internationally renowned researchers working in various sub-fields of systematic musicology and music science.
SysMus is dedicated to including a broad range of topics within its conferences, representative of the great diversity within systematic musicology: music perception, music cognition, music psychology, music therapy, music modelling, music information retrieval, musical acoustics, music theory and analysis, music sociology, music education, music technology, music and culture, music and semiotics, and music philosophy.
