The University of Washington's School of Music provides extensive professional education with programs focused on both performance and academic research. With more than 500 music students enrolled, the school offers various degree options including Bachelor of Arts, Bachelor of Music, Master of Arts, Master of Music, Doctor of Musical Arts, and Doctor of Philosophy. Non-major students also frequently enroll for private lessons or join musical ensembles as extracurricular activities. The curriculum reflects music's dual character: as a creative art form that thrives through continuous innovation by composers, performers, and educators, and as an academic discipline within the humanities that demands scholarly examination of its theoretical foundations and historical evolution. Graduate programs create an enriching atmosphere for students to delve deeper into either performance or academic research.
