CASM is the only devoted university-based centre for studies in Australian Indigenous music.
Are you a musical Indigenous Australian who is 17 or over?
The CASM foundation year is a dedicated entry program for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Australians wanting to study at university. CASM is part of the Elder Conservatorium of Music at Adelaide University.
The CASM Foundation Year offers an innovative program that responds to the learning needs and aspirations of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students, and offers state-of-the-art learning and sound recording facilities.
At CASM you will be actively involved in a variety of music performance, composition and recording activities. Much of this work is done in the CASM studios, which house exceptional facilities for rehearsing, music recording and audio-visual production.
