Bachelor's Degree
The Music History program at UMass Amherst offers both specialized tracks for graduate and undergraduate degree seekers, as well as core courses for all music majors. The BA in Music History equips graduates for advanced studies in Musicology or professional paths like arts administration, library science, or music media. Compared to the more rigorous Bachelor of Music (BM), the BA allows for a broader liberal arts focus and easier pairing with a secondary major in non-music disciplines.
