The society's goals are to connect, motivate, and educate psychology and music lovers alike, cast light on a relatively new and rapidly growing field of scientific study, and advance the discipline of music cognition. We strive to encourage intellectual and social interaction between students, faculty, and professionals in the music cognition field and promote music therapy as alternative medicine. We hope to increase public awareness of music therapy and its benefits for the individual and society while encouraging students to serve the community. These goals will be achieved through presentations and engagement by experts and faculty in the field and community events.
