About Us


Our Mission

The Department of Music provides an inclusive environment for professional training of aspiring performers, educators, composers, producers, and scholars. Through rigorous study with exceptional faculty, as well as education and industry partners, music students grow their artistry, develop a professional network, and expand their thinking and actions to include diverse views and experiences as global citizens. While fostering student achievement, the department engages with community members through our state-of-the-art facility by hosting concerts, festivals, and outreach activities.

Our objectives are to:

  • Provide nationally competitive academic programs and general music studies in music that help students achieve their educational, professional, and personal goals. 
  • Present substantive public performances reflecting diverse musical styles and traditions that provide real-world contexts for student learning and engage audiences with meaningful cultural experiences.
  • Create an inclusive environment that provides opportunities for students from a wide variety of backgrounds and perspectives to succeed.
  • Attract, develop, and retain high-achieving students and qualified faculty by promoting opportunities for creative and innovative activities on- and off-campus.
