Degree Programs

The Department of Music offers three degree programs.

• The Bachelor of Arts degree is designed for those students whose wish is to be broadly educated in the liberal arts and in music. There are optional concentrations in Composition, Jazz Studies, or Theory/History for any student who wishes additional coursework in these areas, or a student can choose to combine music with a second major in other fields such as Business, English, or Wilderness Leadership.  

• The Bachelor of Arts in Music Education degree prepares students for licensure in public school music K-12 and for further study at the graduate level.  

• The Bachelor of Music in Performance degree provides intensive study in music for talented students preparing for professional careers.
