The Bachelor of Music (B.M.) degree is the professional approach to the music major for the student who wants a strong foundation in music, combined with in-depth training in specific aspects of the art. The department offers concentrations in Choral or Instrumental Music Education and Performance (guitar, percussion, piano, strings, vocal, or winds).
The Music Education concentrations are designed for those who plan to teach in grades P-12 and lead to state teaching certification. Students earning this degree concentration must qualify for admission to the Teacher Education Program of the College of Education and Human Development and must perform a half recital during the senior year.
Performance concentrates are required to present a senior full recital and a junior half recital. Students concentrating in performance must include four semesters in a secondary performance area of study (instrumentalist and vocalists may satisfy this requirement with MUP 129 , 130 , 229 , and 230 ).
Admission to a degree program or minor in music is based on an audition in the primary performance area.
