About this Degree

At Fairfield University, the study of Music is not just about preserving knowledge of the past. It is a field of study that provides forums for debate and action, and delivers content that gives context to learning. It provides insight into culture and history and illuminates what is happening here and now. We not only want students to understand, evaluate, and analyze Music, but we also want them to make music a meaningful part of their lives. Our goal is for students to find the passion in music and to actively engage with the issues and the contexts surrounding, impacting, and influencing it.

Our faculty provides critiques in classes, lectures, and immersive workshops, and our students have the option of supplementing their classroom learning with private lessons and performing group experiences. Throughout the program, majors and minors collaborate with peers across disciplines and through internship opportunities. This training allows students to become cultured leaders on the forefront of music, music education, and other related fields.
