Bachelor of Arts - Music - Music Studies Specialization

Students in the Bachelor of Arts in Music with Music Studies Specialization will learn by performing, creating, analyzing and listening to music. They will refine their talent as a musician through intensive training and build a strong foundation in the humanities and social sciences, with courses in theory, history and performance.

The music studies specialization takes advantage of the types of courses central to a liberal arts education. Although the degree is not tied to any specific career aspiration, students often use the degree as preparation for careers in musicology, music librarianship, music leadership and private studio teaching. The flexibility of the curriculum is also used by students desiring a performance-based course of study and to prepare for graduate school.
