The Bachelor of Music degree is the initial professional degree in music. Its primary emphasis is on development of the skills, concepts and sensitivity essential to the professional life of a musician. It also prepares students for advanced study in graduate school.
*Admission. Students seeking admission to this program must have completed MUS 213, MUS 214, MUS 215 and MUS 216 with minimum grades of “B.” They must submit copies of their written compositions for evaluation by their theory/composition faculty. This process will normally take place at the end of the sophomore year.
*Students seeking this major must demonstrate adequate keyboard skills as well as advanced skills in musical analysis and composition. Composition majors at the undergraduate level must have either keyboard, vocal or instrumental performance competence equivalent to that expected of a Bachelor of Arts student.
