Music Minor
The Department of Music offers a Music Minor for students who are interested in pursuing studies in music in addition to their current degree plan. Students with a Music Minor participate in department ensembles, complete four semesters of applied lessons, and take some of the same music theory and history coursework that a Music Major does.
Admission as a Music Minor generally requires interested students to complete a short audition for a Department of Music faculty member. Please contact the studio instructor for your instrument/voice or the department chair to receive more information.
