*NEW* Minor in Music
New in Fall '24: Minor in Music with Performance & Jazz Pathways
The new Minor in Music is organized around pathways of personal interest, designed with the guidance of an advisor in the Department of Music. Any combination of 15 credits from the Music course list will fulfill the minor. Of those 15 credits, up to 6 maximum performance credits, consisting of lessons and/or ensembles, are allowed for any pathway (please note students must audition and be accepted into the Music Performance Program in order to register for lessons and/or ensembles).
Below are recommended pathways that students can use as a guide if they have interest in the areas of Performance or Jazz. The courses listed in these pathways are not required and serve only as suggestions to students with interests in these areas.
All students interested in the Minor in Music should reach out to the Director of Undergraduate Studies, who will refer you to an advisor.
