Bachelor of Music (BM)
The BM degree in Music (the Bachelor of Music with options in Performance, Composition, History, or Theory) provides the deepest exposure to course work in music. As a consequence, elective space is smaller. Beyond the courses in the liberal arts core (English, math, science, etc.), your time and attention will be fully occupied with applied lessons, ensembles, music academic courses (history, theory, analysis, literature, etc.) and pedagogy.
This degree prepares you for a career in professional performance or composition, as well as for graduate study in any of the degree focus areas.
Our BM degree options are as follows:
- BM Composition
- BM History
- BM Instrumental Performance
- BM Piano Performance
- BM Theory
- BM Vocal Performance
