The University of Washington's School of Music provides extensive professional education with degree options focused on both performance and academic research. With more than 500 music students enrolled, the school awards various degrees including Bachelor of Arts, Bachelor of Music, Master of Arts, Master of Music, Doctor of Musical Arts, and Doctor of Philosophy. The institution also welcomes non-majors who wish to take private lessons or join musical ensembles for personal enrichment. The curriculum recognizes 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 frameworks and historical evolution. Graduate students benefit from an intellectually stimulating setting to deepen their expertise in either performance or music scholarship.
