DEGREES OFFERED

Bachelor of Arts in Music

Bachelor of Science in Music

Bachelor of Science in Music - Performance

Bachelor of Science in Music Education


Our music program was founded more than 150 years ago, making music an integral part of the culture and traditions at Jewell, such as our choir's second-place and national finalist finishes in The American Prize in Choral Performance and the release of their third CD, to our opera workshops, holiday concerts, collaborations with Theatre and our Cardinal Sound band. In 2018, our performance ensembles toured Chicago, England, Scotland, Oklahoma and many local and regional venues. Private instruction, performance labs, ensembles, studio recitals and research add depth to classroom instruction for music majors and minors. Non-music majors also may take applied lessons and participate in Jewell’s highly acclaimed vocal, instrumental and choral ensembles. At Jewell, you may choose a B.A. in Music or a B.S. in Music, where you take more hours specifically in music. If you opt for the B.S. you may choose to gain a specific emphasis in performance. Or you may study for a B.S. in Music Education.
