Music or Music Performance Major Requirements
(42 hours required for the Music major, 65 hours required for Music
Performance major)
All music majors are required to pass a piano proficiency examination
before graduation. All music majors are required to participate in
an ensemble each semester and must perform in a student recital
each semester. While it is possible to begin work as a musician after
having completed the program, it is recommended that graduates
continue their musical training by entering a master of fine arts or
doctoral program.
