Liberal Arts Degrees
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 additional studies outside the Department of Music. For the BA in Music degree, the student will complete 6 hours of languages. 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 and the Minor in Worship. For the BA in Worship Leadership degree, the student will complete 6 hours of languages in addition to the University General Core. The student pursuing the BA in Worship Leadership major will also select a principal area of applied study. Worship Leadership courses are intended to be coupled with music studies to prepare students to lead others in corporate worship that is Biblically grounded, historically informed, and contextually appropriate.
