Department of Music
The Department of Music offers the Bachelor of Music and Bachelor of Arts degree programs, as well as a Minor in Music Business. There are also many ensemble performance opportunities for both music majors and non-music majors.
Degrees and Programs
Bachelor of Music
Considered a professional degree by the National Association of Schools of Music, the Bachelor of Music degree is available in the following areas of concentration:
- Instrumental Performance
- Piano Performance
- Vocal Performance
- Composition (Technology)
- Commercial Music
The Bachelor of Music degree prepares students for careers as performers, applied music teachers, composers, songwriters, and music business and industry professionals as well as preparing them for advanced study in graduate music programs.
Bachelor of Arts
The Bachelor of Arts degree is a more generalized music degree that combines training in basic musicianship and performance with a wide range of music electives and an additional minor. This degree prepares students for careers in the music industry that may be less performance-intensive, or as a partner with another, unrelated degree program in preparation for careers that may require both areas of expertise.
