Courses for Nondegree Music Students

Graduate courses are available to music professionals who wish to improve their skills but may not wish to enroll in a formal degree program. Enrollment requires the department chair's approval for graduate-level courses. Open-enrollment courses and institutes are available to all interested students. The second half of the summer is traditionally devoted to institutes and workshops serving the music professional. Past offerings have included Orff and Kodaly workshops, choral symposia, jazz study with George Shearing, electronic music, music theory, and summer instrumental workshops. Music teachers who hold an Initial License may also plan a program to fulfill requirements for the Continuing License (see Continuing License section).
