DEGREES OFFERED

Bachelor of Arts in Music Studies

Bachelor of Arts in Music, Sound, and Technology

Minor in Music


Our department of music seeks to distinguish itself among liberal arts college music departments in the United States. Our curriculum is modeled on the best features of a music conservatory, but we are small enough to offer personal attention. We are proud of our excellent performance spaces and studios. The music program offers you the choice of two different majors (music major or music & technology major) and different concentrations, as well as a teaching certificate program in music education.
