Degree Map Notes


  • Following is a sample plan. Please note that student-specific plans may differ.
  • Meet with an academic advisor to create a specific plan that best fits your academic needs.
  • The student is ultimately responsible for knowing and completing all degree requirements.
  • Consultation with an advisor may result in an altered plan customized for an individual student.
  • Check your Degree Works  for requirements and completion.

 

Year 1


Fall Semester (16-18 credits)


*In order to ensure that music students are sufficiently prepared for the music theory sequence required in all music degrees (education, performance, and therapy), MUSC 1105  was established as a prerequisite for MUSC 1110 . As this course is considered remedial work, the 3 credits earned in MUSC 1105  are not required for degree completion, but must be made up to achieve the 120-credit minimum for all bachelor’s degrees. All incoming music students will have an opportunity to test out of MUSC 1105 . Because this test is administered in part through Canvas, all incoming pre-program music majors should register for MUSC 1105  regardless of whether they expect to remain in the class. Those who do not pass the test must pass MUSC 1105  with a grade of C or better before taking MUSC 1110 . Those students who pass the test will need to take 3 credits of coursework, and will resume the music theory sequence with MUSC 1110  the following spring semester. 


** MUSC 2180  consists of a series of three proficiency exams that all music majors must complete prior to the completion of four semesters of study.

Year 2


Year 3


Fall Semester (16 credits)


*A music theory elective course is offered every fall and spring semester. The music theory elective course may be taken any semester after completing MUSC 2110  with a grade of C or better. Music students should plan which option they wish to take and consult with the music department office regarding which semester that option will be offered.
