Music History and Literature - Sub-Plan Option

The writing of term papers, reports, and assignments is an important component of this program. Graduation requirements include (1) the completion of a senior thesis or project and (2) either a public oral presentation of the senior thesis or project, including musical examples, or the successful completion of a comprehensive examination.

At least one Music History/Literature Elective must be in a course that covers the music of Latin America or another non-Western European region.

Music elective credits, when used as substitutes for music course credits, may be satisfied by either MUS or MUPI. In order for MUPI credits to count toward the degree, a jury is required.
