Introduction

The degree Bachelor of Arts (Music) is designed for the student who wishes to pursue the study of music and its place in the context of a liberal arts education As such it is the ideal degree for students who are interested in music but may wish to pursue careers in law, medicine, arts administration, media studies, elementary education, digital arts, and so on. In addition to music courses, Bachelor of Arts (Music) students have the flexibility to take a large number of courses outside of the department of Music, allowing them to create degree plans that cater to their individual interests and needs. Students are thus encouraged to meet with a Department advisor early in their degree to plan out and create a focus for their program.

 
Admission

See 3.1 Admissions and 4.4.1 Department Regulations.

A Bachelor of Arts in Music requires the completion of eight to ten full-course equivalents in Music, which must include the following:

1. Two full-course equivalents from each of Music History and Literature and Music Theory and Composition

2. One and one half full-course equivalents from Music Performance or Musicianship (Music Theory and Composition 221 and 321)

4. Music History and Literature 551

5. Music Theory and Composition 479 or 481, which can count towards requirement #2 above.
