The Bachelor of Arts in Music provides a highly adaptable program that allows students to blend diverse academic interests. Those enrolled in this degree frequently pair it with majors like biology, chemistry, history, economics, or various pre-professional tracks including medicine, pharmacy, and dentistry, alongside disciplines such as global studies and psychology. Requiring fewer courses than the Bachelor of Music, this option is ideal for undergraduates seeking to explore music while dedicating time to other fields. Musicology examines global musical traditions across historical and contemporary contexts, incorporating historical analysis, theoretical frameworks, and sociocultural perspectives. Students collaborate with distinguished professors to understand musical composition and cultural significance across eras and regions. Undergraduate participants (B.A. and B.M.) engage with faculty through various formats including lectures, seminars, thesis projects, independent research, and summer programs, while the graduate curriculum ranks among the country's most prestigious.
