Consider a Bachelor of Arts in Music degree, a nonprofessional degree, which offers the curriculum flexibility you need for a variety of pre‑professional studies, such as pre‑medical and pre‑legal. Students in this program study music theory, music history, applied music, and have a variety of ensemble experiences.
In addition to the music major, students choose a minor outside Frost and in some cases, the minor can be expanded to become a second major area. Areas for the minor can be chosen from the University’s various schools and colleges. Popular minors for Frost students include:
- School of Communication,
- Pre-Medical,
- Pre‑Law,
- Business,
- English Literature, and
- Psychology.
Many other minors, as well as majors, are available to Frost students. Faculty advisors from the College of Arts and Sciences, Communication, Business, Engineering, Nursing, and Architecture all work closely to ensure that appropriate courses are available to music students.
The BA in Music Program is part of the Musicology Department. Undergraduate students who are interested in musicology, music history, or ethnomusicology are encouraged to enroll in the Bachelor of Arts in Music degree, through which they can pursue these and related subjects within a liberal arts music curriculum.
Please note: There is no undergraduate degree in musicology.
