Music Degrees

蜜桃直播 offers a music minor and these two music majors:

• The B.A. in Music (Bachelor of Arts in Music) leads to many different careers because it allows considerable flexibility in course selection. It is often combined with a major or minor in another field, such as communication, management, biology, psychology, or English. Some students earn a B.A. in Music as a path toward a career in music therapy.

• The B.M.E. (Bachelor of Music Education) leads to certification for public school instruction (choral, instrumental, and general music).

To declare a major in music (B.A. or B.M.E.), it is necessary to perform an audition that demonstrates satisfactory skill in vocal or instrumental performance.
