The Department of Music offers the Bachelor of Music with concentrations in
Instrumental Performance, Piano Performance, and Vocal Performance and the
Bachelor of Arts degree in Music. We also work with the College of Education to
offer the Bachelor of Music Education, Master of Education in Music Education,
and Ph.D. in Music Education degrees. Our students hone and develop their
musical talents in rigorous programs that require dedication, self-discipline, self-
motivation, collaborative, and time management skills. Additionally they acquire
confidence, entrepreneurial ideas, conceptual thinking, perseverance, focus, self-
expression, creativity, and the ability to present themselves in public
performance, which equip them for success in graduate school or a wide variety
of careers.

OUTREACH Outreach is a natural outgrowth of music performance and teaching because
connecting with audiences and other musician as performer and teacher is critical
to our very existence. All of our student ensembles and music faculty members
perform several times per year in formal concerts and recitals, as well as for a
wide variety of events on campus and around the community. Music faculty
members present master classes and workshops for local, state, and regional high
school students who demonstrate an interest in and talent for music
performance. Our interaction with area schools and performances for the
community are a hallmark of our regular activities. Music faculty, ensembles, and
students present nearly 200 performances and boast numerous appearances in
master classes and clinics annually in the local community and on campus.
