For those deeply committed to music while seeking a comprehensive liberal arts education, the liberal studies track offers the ideal music degree program. This curriculum covers music history, global musical traditions, and theoretical analysis while honing your research, writing, and critical thinking abilities. Your musical training continues through private instruction and ensemble participation, equipping you for advanced studies at the master's or doctoral level. At UNH, you'll collaborate with distinguished faculty musicologists and showcase your work at the annual Undergraduate Research Conference, where student projects frequently achieve publication. Performance opportunities range from elite touring ensembles to spirited campus orchestras and bands. Community engagement initiatives and study abroad options in Cardiff, Wales, complement your studies, along with the flexibility to combine music with disciplines like business.
