The curriculum is flexible: ample electives allow for the possibility to explore additional fields of study, including double-majors, minors, certificate programs and pre-med or pre-law coursework. Because of the academic focus of this degree, students interested in studying performance should apply to a bachelor of music degree in their chosen instrument.

Career Possibilities:

Few careers in music professions can be attained without graduate study in a particular field. The BA in music is a flexible gateway to graduate study in most fields of music, particularly musicology, music theory, arts administration and music librarianship. Other possible careers include music promotions and music journalism.
