2023-2024 Academic Catalog [ARCHIVED CATALOG]
Music: Instrumental Concentration, BA
|
|
The Bachelor of Arts degree in Music: Instrumental Concentration requires 48 units, and is designed with flexibility to encourage the pursuit of a double-major. For example, unless otherwise fulfilled, there are four courses (up to 8 units) in the curriculum which also can be used to satisfy core requirements (i.e. 4-CU for Arts/Humanities, 3-CU for Identity, Power and Equity in the United States, and 1 CU for “Engaged Learning”). In addition, students with a modest background in music are often able to free up curricular room by waiving fundamentals courses through exams (i.e. MUSIC 100 & 105).
