Music Minor

Schedule of Classes

Specific offerings for each semester may be found in the Schedule of Classes.

Requirements

The curriculum for the auditioned minor consists mainly of classes intended for majors, making it possible to apply these courses to a bachelor’s degree in music should the student choose to do so. This minor requires the same audition required of music majors. Students must complete a minimum of 25 credits in the following courses. Only courses in which a grade of at least a C has been earned will count toward the minor.

• MUS 1331 - History and Literature of Western Tonal Music (3)
• MUS 1332 - Music of World Cultures (3)

2. Eight credits of music theory

3. Minimum of 4 credits of applied music

• Two terms of 1000-level applied lessons on the instrument with which the student performed the entrance audition

4. Four credits of ensemble
