< College of Liberal Arts and SciencesMusic
The major in music, administered by the School of Music, is designed for students whose academic interests are broader than can be accommodated within the several music programs in the College of Fine and Applied Arts. This program, which incorporates a high degree of flexibility beyond the core of required courses, can prepare the way for graduate study in music theory, composition, or the various branches of musicology. Students must select an option with the assistance of an adviser and submit a major plan of study form. (Those students interested in performance or music education may refer to the College of Fine and Applied Arts curricula elsewhere in this catalog.)

Minimum hours required for graduation: 120 hours
Departmental distinction: Students interested in attaining departmental distinction should consult with the LAS music adviser no later than the second semester of their junior year. In order to be eligible for departmental distinction, a student must have a cumulative grade- point average of 3.4 or above (at the end of the sixth semester) and must complete four hours of MUSIC 229-Thesis and Advanced Undergraduate Honors in Music. Distinction will be recommended at the discretion of the faculty after an evaluation of the student's overall record and the completed thesis.

All students in the major must possess or acquire some mastery of keyboard skills, by successfully completing MUSIC 160 and 161, or by demonstrating such skills through an appropriate audition. (Students who wish to study voice or an instrument for credit are required to satisfy the instrumental or vocal qualifying audition designed for students outside the School of Music; credits earned in applied music beyond the keyboard requirement stated above are generally considered elective.) Students in this program may not use hours from MUSIC 100 toward the minimum 120 hours for graduation. Normally, students begin the study of music theory with MUSIC 101 and 111.
