Peer Learning Program workshops are three-hour seminars led by prominent scholars. They provide the opportunity to learn—from the workshop leader as well as from peers—new perspectives on fundamental issues in music theory, and to apply that learning to research and teaching. The topics range widely across music-theoretical research and teaching interests.

The Graduate Student Workshop Program (GSWP) emphasizes instruction, participation, and discussion among graduate students.

Recent achievements highlight music theory's expanding scope and influence.

The 2024 Student Presentation Award winner is Tori M. Vilches.
