Programs

Music

The aim of this department is to help students develop performance skills, theoretical knowledge, musicianship, and critical judgment in music for service in the church, school, and community. There are no prerequisites for the general music major program, however students must maintain a grade of C or better in all music courses.

In addition to meeting the Providence mission and purposes, this major will enable each graduate to: demonstrate skills for professional musical leadership in church, school, or community; develop critical thinking, problem solving and practical skills in music theory and music history; develop effective performance skills in ensembles and in solo work; prepare for further study in music.

Students in the General Music program will receive training in three core areas of music study - Music Theory, Music History and Music Performance. Developing skills in these areas will enable the students to pursue additional under graduate as well as graduate studies in any music discipline.

These general requirements, along with the related co-curricular expectations of all regular Providence University College students, are designed to equip students to fulfill the mission and purposes of Providence University College.
