About Bachelor of Arts - Music
The Bachelor of Arts in Music in the College of Humanities, Arts and Social Sciences (CHASS) at the University of the Incarnate Word is designed to shape the next generation of music professionals for careers in the arts or any number of industries through a diverse interdisciplinary program.
Focus, creativity, collaboration, performance ability, musicianship, listening, improvisation, resilience – there are countless skills that are developed through a music degree program. The study of music supports the development and refinement of the student as an artist and skilled instrumentalist or vocalist. Certainly, these are objectives that require hundreds of hours of practice, dedication to craft and the ability to absorb and integrate critical feedback - all qualities that make for exceptional musicians and professionals inside and outside of the music industry.
In addition, the program is ideal for students wanting to pursue a double major in music and another discipline, meaning they can also prepare for a related or non-related profession. In addition to working in the music industry or as a music professional, graduates of the program have gone on to graduate studies in music, medical school, or law school. Music education provides excellent preparation for challenging and intricate pursuits. For example, as many as 67% of music students who apply to medical school are accepted, one of the larger percentages of any pre-med degree.
Music majors are well suited for industry positions in music research, music and arts journalism, music marketing and sales, production, management and copyright, talent booking, teaching and coaching, performing, and many others. Students may pursue careers in related entertainment fields such as online media, television, film, radio and recorded music, theatre, advertising and marketing, to name a few. They may pursue graduate education in any number of specialized fields inside or outside of the arts or in preparation to become educators.
