Department and Program Overview:
The Department of Music at **MEMBERS ONLY**SIGN UP NOW***. of New Jersey is a community of musician-educators committed to professionalism in teaching, performance and creative activity, scholarship, and community service. We collaborate to provide the foundations of professional musicianship for all music majors at the undergraduate and graduate levels, to help all students discover the central role of music in the university context, and to create a thriving cultural life on the campus and in the community through performances at the highest artistic level. We provide the resources, guidance, and diverse environment that motivate our students to seek excellence as they build and maintain careers in music.

The Department of Music offers BA, BM and MM degrees. BM programs provide professional training with a performance focus, with degrees in Jazz Studies, Music Education, Music and Entertainment Industries, Performance, and Sound Engineering Arts. The two BA degrees, Music Studies and Music Studies with Popular Music Emphasis, are liberal arts degrees, with less emphasis on performance. At the graduate level three concentrations within the Master of Music are offered: Jazz Studies (available with either a performance or arranging emphasis), Music Education, and Music and Entertainment Industries. The music department partners with WP's Cotsakos College of Business in an MBA with a Music Industries concentration. Regular performances include large and small ensembles of students and faculty on the Midday Recital Series, the New Music Series, the Jazz Room Series, and in individual special concerts.

The Music & Entertainment Industries undergraduate program (BM) offers a general introduction to the industry, focusing on the multifaceted entertainment industry and offering course work in licensing, touring, intellectual property rights, public relations, media use, law and ethics, and personal management. The program is designed to allow students the opportunity to develop a high level of musical competence while becoming knowledgeable about the theoretical and practical aspects of the industry. The music portion of the curriculum allows students to choose between classical or jazz performance tracks and elect advanced music courses to support their musical goals. In addition, the Music & Entertainment Industries courses permit students to extend their knowledge and experience into specific areas needed to become qualified industry personnel.

The Music & Entertainment Industries Master of Music (MM) program provides advanced education in the areas of music business, music management, entrepreneurship and entertainment law as they pertain to the recording industry. Through extensive and ongoing contact with industry representatives from the New York area, students develop a clear understanding of the field.
