Music at Emory

The Department of Music at Emory University provides an exciting and innovative environment for developing knowledge and skills as a performer, composer, and scholar. Led by a faculty of more than 60 nationally and internationally recognized artists and researchers, undergraduate and graduate students experience a rich diversity of performance and academic opportunities. Undergraduate students in the department earn a BA in music with a specialization in performance, composition, or research; many simultaneously earn a second degree in another department. True to the spirit of Emory, a liberal arts college in the heart of a research university, faculty members and ensembles also welcome the participation of non-major students from across the Emory campus.
