The major in music prepares students for careers in performance, school or studio teaching, music business, and music theory and composition. The courses offered lead to an Associate of Arts degree and may be applied toward various bachelor’s degree programs in music.
Many courses and ensembles are available to the non-music major. Students can study and experience music of virtually any style, from Western European art music to jazz or ethnic music.
Private music lessons (applied music) are required of all music majors. Registration for ensemble requirements should be in consultation with a music advisor.
