The Department of Music offers a minor in music theory that is open to music majors and auditioned minors who wish to pursue expanded upper-level study of music theory at the undergraduate level. Interested students should contact music theory program coordinator Melissa Hoag (hoag@oakland.edu). The minor in music theory is designed to expand students’ knowledge of repertoire, impart up-to-date date training in the teaching of music theory, and increase students’ experience with analytical inquiry for the betterment of their musicianship. A minimum grade of C is required for each course.
