学术项目
The Department of 音乐 offers one music degree—Bachelor of 音乐 (B.亩.)—with three possible majors: music, music performance, and music production. Non-production majors may complete the basic major only, or combine it with a performance emphasis. The department also offers a music minor. All students pursuing music degree programs will participate in a primary departmental music organization or ensemble, during each quarter in residence.
音乐 Major (Bachelor of 音乐)
学生 who earn a B.亩. will complete classes in music theory, ear training, and music history. Private-lessons and ensemble participation are required, as well as a senior recital, but a concentration is not required for this major. 学生 who are considering graduate studies are strongly encouraged to take the general GRE. Those interested in teaching may combine the degree with a Bachelor of education degree.
音乐 Performance Major (Bachelor of 音乐)
学生 who earn a B.亩. with a music performance emphasis are equipped with a foundation for teaching music privately, though graduate training beyond the B.亩. is recommended for a professional career and is essential for teaching at the college or university level. Applied lessons are required to focus performance skills, along with both a junior and senior recital.
