The Music Department at a Glance. The music department is part of the College of Arts and Sciences. Music majors are able to earn a BA degree in Music Education or a BA in Music with concentrations in Composition, Performance, Pre-Teaching or General. The music program is fully accredited by the National Association of Schools of Music and many of its graduates have gone on to distinguished and successful careers in education and performance.
Music is for Everyone. There are many opportunities for students, regardless of major, to participate in music ensembles, applied/private lessons and numerous other classes. Many of these classes help fulfill the humanities General Education requirement.
