Laurie McManus, Associate Professor of Music
Ruebush Hall, Room 220, (540) 665-4596, lmcmanus@su.edu
The Bachelor of Arts in Music, Classical Applied Emphasis curriculum is designed for students who are interested in a broad liberal arts education while continuing to pursue music studies. This degree is suitable for students who wish to design a program of study with the flexibility to integrate minor study in an area outside of the Conservatory. Working closely with faculty advisors, B.A. in Music students map out course schedules to find suitable balance between music and their academic emphasis, structuring a plan that appropriately fits the needs of the chosen degree focus. In their final year, B.A. in Music candidates design and present a creative capstone project that synthesizes their music studies.
The course of study will incorporate the following:
- at least 30 hours must be at the 300 or 400 level. No more than 12 hours of university general education hours may be counted toward this requirement.
- a creative capstone project that synthesizes music studies.
This degree is designed to be completed in three years. Adding a double major outside of the Conservatory is possible by working with faculty advisors to create a four-year degree completion plan.
