Overview

Majors of the Music program of the Utah State University must pass an audition to be admitted, making the program competitive and challenging which produces the highest quality musicians and music teachers. Students can also take advantage of scholarship funding exclusive to the Music Department.

There are many performance opportunities available for students, including concerts, operas, recitals, and numerous music ensembles. Students benefit from performances and master classes, which are small workshops in a private classroom setting given by visiting professional musicians from around the world.

The Music Department is housed in the Caine College of the Arts, which is headed by Craig Jessop, longtime director of the world-renown Mormon Tabernacle Choir. The Music Department is also home to the Fry Street Quartet, the region’s only professional string quartet in residence. The group works as faculty and mentors in the department in addition to regular performances on campus and international tours. USU’s Music Department boasts 100% job placement in public, private, and charter schools for its music education majors after graduation.
