Professor Julie Cumming,听Associate Professor of听Music History and听Musicology, Interim Dean of the Schulich School of Music, has received the听Graduate Faculty Teaching Award (Doctoral-level) 2016-2017 听from the Northeastern Association of Graduate Schools (NAGS). The association is comprised听of Deans and Associate Deans of graduate studies from听universities on the east coast of the US north of Washington DC, within听Canada, from 听universities in听Ontario, Quebec, and the Maritimes. 听Membership in听NAGS听provides听a community of Deans and Associate Deans 听with a听creative forum听to address common issues within听member institutions relating to graduate study and research.听

Professor Cumming's听Graduate Faculty Teaching Award (Doctoral-level) 2016-2017听award recognizes her听excellence and creativity in the teaching of graduate students with an emphasis on pedagogy, including classroom-based and/or distance learning instruction. It听also considers innovation in graduate curriculum development and implementation. 听One example of this听is the听Cumming-Schubert Research Lab, which she and听Professor Peter Schubert established. 听The听lab is a forum听in听which supervised or co-supervised graduate students from a wide variety of disciplines ranging from musicology and music theory to English, Art History, Music Technology and Music Performance Masters meet听weekly to share challenges and successes. 听This interdisciplinary group works diligently on writing and presentation skills and they听edit a wide variety of materials as well as听critique content and presentation styles for upcoming听paper presentations. 听In addition the group听serves as a sample class for听job interviews, and helps beginning students learn about the professional academic path ahead. 听The Cumming-Schubert Research Lab parallels the experience that graduate students in the sciences have when they are part of a lab community. 听听
