The Department of Music offers two majors leading to the liberal arts degree: a major in Music (BA or BS) and a major in Worship Leadership.

Students pursuing the Bachelor of Arts or Bachelor of Science degree in Music must complete the General Core Curriculum and the Bachelor of Arts or Bachelor of Science Specific Core and must select a minor area of study outside the Department of Music. The student will also select a principal area of applied study within the major and successfully complete an initial audition in that area.

In addition to courses and degrees in music, the Department of Music also offers classes in Worship Leadership as well as the Bachelor of Arts in Worship Leadership (with a required minor in one of the following areas of study: Accounting, Biblical Studies, Biblical Languages, Business, Christian Studies, Communication Studies, Digital Media Studies, Intercultural Studies, Management, Missions, Psychology, Theatre) and the Minor in Worship Leadership.
