The Master of Music degree offers two concentrations to further prepare students for careers as educators and performers. Students choose an area of interest and apply for admission to be accepted into one of the concentration areas: Music Education or Performance. Graduate students have the opportunity to work closely with the graduate faculty with expertise in their area of specialization. The many fine ensembles provide students abundant performing opportunities.

Graduate Assistantships Graduate Assistantships are awarded to students with regular admission status, based upon an interview/audition. Assistantships of up to $10,000 per year are funded through a stipend, tuition waiver, and/or additional Music scholarships. All graduate assistantships are based on a workload of 20 hours per week.
