The most extraordinary thing about the UCA Music Department is its astonishingly well-qualified faculty. The over 30 full-time and 15 part-time faculty members carry credentials from the most prestigious graduate institutions in the country.
In fact, it is probably fair to say that the music faculty at UCA is unique among universities in the South. These faculty members remain actively and nationally engaged in performing and research, and are dedicated to bringing to their students the benefits of their superb training and broad experience.
The acclaimed ensemble and solo performances of UCA music students reflect this faculty dedication. Students can pursue the Bachelor of Music degree in performance, composition, or music education, or the Bachelor of Arts degree in Music with a minor in technology, business or another field. At the graduate level, the Master’s degree has majors in performance, conducting, music theory, and music education.
