The American Musical Culture major includes 11 music courses and a culminating senior project. Tailored for those pursuing American Studies, arts administration, cultural analysis, creative composition, entertainment law, media research, music industry, music writing, music scholarship, or sacred music studies, the curriculum provides diverse offerings in music history, theory, composition, audio production, and performance. Students can choose among three specialized paths: Musicology/Ethnomusicology (geared toward graduate studies), Music & Media Studies (focused on music industry careers), and Sacred Music (preparing students for advanced study or music ministry roles). Each concentration requires completion of 11 courses (33 credits) along with the final senior project.
