Welcome to Academic Studies

The Academic Studies Area is comprised of Music History and Literature, Music Theory, Music Composition, and Music Technology. This area provides both the academic backbone for all music degrees and General Education courses for non-majors. We offer the masters and doctorate in Music History and Literature and in Theory and Composition, and an undergraduate Composition degree. Most of our graduate courses involve independent research, and many of our students have placed their work in peer-reviewed publications.
