Graduate Studies

Faculty who are practicing artists and experts in the field provide an environment grounded in traditional music education, while encouraging students to study broadly and find their own creative voice.

The M.Mus. program allows graduate students to concentrate in an artistic discipline, to build a program of individual study, and to synthesize their work into a personalized artistic expression.

The M.Mus. degree is a two-year, full-time, research-based program. To meet the degree requirements, students will complete required courses, research project/lecture recital, and a written thesis.
