Bachelor of Fine Arts–Music Performance

Bachelor of Science in Education–Music Education

The Department of Music has a threefold mission: (1) professional preparation of music educators, performers, composers, conductors, and musicologists, (2) liberal studies for the university, and (3) programs, education, and resources of music for the community. Degrees offered include the Bachelor of Arts, Bachelor of Fine Arts, and Bachelor of Science in Education.

Admission to the Music Department requires satisfactory completion of an audition in addition to the university general requirements. Detailed information will be sent to the applicant upon request.

The program leading to the Bachelor of Arts degree in Music has been designed to give the student a general experience in music. The student seeking this degree has the choice of three tracks: Music/General Studies Track, Music History/Literature, Music Theory/Composition, or Music Performance.

The program leading to the Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in Music (equivalent to the Bachelor of Music Degree) is a special program with a major in one of twenty-one areas of performance. The student in this program prepares to pursue a career as a professional performing musician.

The program leading to the Bachelor of Science in Education with a music major leads to certification to teach in the schools of Pennsylvania.

A student wishing to minor in music must elect a minimum of 15 credits in music courses as approved by the department chairperson.

Special Requirements

1. Each student must declare a primary performing medium. Those who elect voice as their primary instrument normally elect piano as a secondary instrument. Performance juries are held at the end of each semester. Students are expected to complete the requirements for their performing area and level. Piano proficiency is required in all degree programs.

2. Ensemble participation of 5 hours a week is required each semester. Students may fulfill this departmental requirement by participation in either 1-credit or 0-credit ensemble(s). In meeting the degree requirements of 7-8 credits of ensemble credit, enrollment in credit-bearing ensembles is flexible across semesters.

3. Students must register for MUSC 475 (Music Lab) and attend (1) departmental meetings or recitals, (2) all department and area recitals, and (3) eight campus recitals and concerts each semester in attendance.
