The Music curriculum is designed for students with a broad range of interests, backgrounds, and career goals. The integration of creating, performing, and thinking about music fosters musical fluency across multiple styles and cultural contexts. Students can choose to complete a major or minor in music, and may also wish to pursue a Five College Certificate in Ethnomusicology. You can find more information about major/minor requirements and selecting courses on our website. For up-to-date course information, please see our page in the course catalog.
