Undergraduate Program

    Introduction

    The University of New Mexico is a member of the National Association of Schools of Music (NASM). Requirements for entrance and graduation as set forth in this Catalog are in accordance with published regulations of NASM.

    In addition to the admission requirements stated under the College of Fine Arts section of this Catalog, music students must also have approval for an emphasis in an instrument or voice for the degrees Bachelor of Music and Bachelor of Music Education, and must also have been accepted into a studio for instruction in the principal instrument or voice. 

    Degree plans are described below. In addition to stated course requirements, students must satisfy general College of Fine Arts and University requirements for graduation.


    Major Study Requirements

    A grade of C or better (not C-) is required in all courses used to fulfill degree requirements for the Bachelor of Music, Bachelor of Arts in Music, Bachelor of Music Education, Music Minor and Music Education Minor. This requirement does not apply to courses offered exclusively on a CR/NC basis.

    If you enroll in any one of these programs, read the paragraph in the College of Fine Arts section of the Catalog under "Scholastic Standards," which permits the faculty to exclude from a program any student whose grade point average in his or her major field falls substantially below 3.00. Furthermore, the faculty reserves the right to disqualify from further enrollment or participation in departmental programs:

    1. students who fail to demonstrate reasonable progress in their professional development in music,
    2. students whose conduct reveals a persistent inability to work effectively with others or an unwillingness to adhere to generally recognized standards of professional behavior, or
    3. students who do not consult their assigned advisor prior to registering each semester.

    Specific departmental requirements relating to recitals, special examinations, auditions and similar matters are described in the Department of Music Undergraduate Handbook, available online at the Music department Web site.

    All transfer students will be given a theory, ear-training and sight-singing proficiency examination for the purpose of determining competency in these areas. If test results reveal deficiencies, transfer students will be required to remove such by enrolling in and successfully completing one or more semesters of the theory curriculum.


    Bachelor of Arts in Music

    The Bachelor of Arts (B.A.) with a major in Music is designed for the study of music within a liberal arts curriculum. For the student who is not seeking a professional music degree but who desires a solid foundation in the study of music, the areas of musicianship, performance and history provide the core of courses toward a basic intellectual grasp of the art. Students who additionally seek to major in other areas (double major) or to take a large number of courses in a pre-professional program (pre-law, pre-medical, etc.) are encouraged to enroll in the B.A. in Music. The B.A. in Music cannot be used as a major in combination with the Bachelor of Music. The B.A. in Music is permitted as a major in combination with the Bachelor of Music Education.

    Concentrations in Performance, Theory and Composition, String Pedagogy and Jazz Studies are available in the curriculum leading to the Bachelor of Music (B.M.) degree and comprising a total of 128 hours (134 hours for performance with emphasis in voice). 

    Concentration in Performance is a pre-professional program for the student whose intent is to pursue a career as a music performer. Admission is by audition, either by tape or in person, for the appropriate faculty. Students are expected to reach the highest possible standard of performance on their chosen instrument or voice.  Preparation emphasis is geared toward enabling the student to pursue further study at the graduate level, if that is his or her desire.

    Concentration in Theory and Composition will prepare students for graduate work in composition or music theory.   The program features class and individual instruction in compositional topics and an extensive list of both required and elective courses in music theory.  The theory courses prepare students to write, hear, analyze, theorize, and receive critiques on their work about music from the sixteenth century to the present.

    Concentration in String Pedagogy prepares string players who wish to become proficient studio teachers, and string players seeking Suzuki Association of the Americas Long Term Training.

    Concentration in Jazz Studies is a pre-professional program for the student whose intent is to pursue a career as a music performer in jazz and commercial styles of music.  Students enrolled in this program are expected to attain a high standard of performance on their instrument, including the development of skills in jazz improvisation.  This degree also prepares the student for success at the graduate level of study in the area of jazz.

    Bachelor of Music Education

    Students completing the requirements and curriculum stated below will receive the Bachelor of Music Education (B.M.E.) degree and will be eligible to apply for Level 1 Licensure in Music, K–12, in the State of New Mexico.

    Official acceptance to the degree program is granted upon admission to the College of Fine Arts as a Music Education Major (see College of Fine Arts Admission). Satisfactory completion of MUSE 194 Introduction to Music Education and MUSE 195 Introductory Teaching Practicum is necessary for official acceptance to the Music Education degree program. Students may be eligible for acceptance upon completion of two semesters; early application is advised. Students seeking only endorsement for music teacher certification must be admitted to a Teacher Education Program (see Admission to College of Education Programs). Students pursuing teacher licensure are considered de facto Music Education majors, even though their enrollment status may be non-degree, and will be required to complete all Music and Music Education course work required for the B.M.E. if this course work does not appear on their transcripts

    Students will have a period of one year to remove any deficiencies revealed during the admission process. Students already enrolled at the University of New Mexico will not be eligible to transfer to the College of Fine Arts or to take 300 and 400 level professional courses until this admission process is completed. Exception will be made for students with earned baccalaureate degrees upon recommendation of the department and for students transferring from other institutions. Transfer students may be enrolled in the College of Fine Arts on a provisional basis for a maximum of two semesters, during which time they must complete the admission process.

    All transfer students will be given a theory, ear-training and sight-singing proficiency examination for the purpose of determining competency in these areas. If test results reveal deficiencies, transfer students will be required to remove such by enrolling and successfully completing one or more semesters of the theory curriculum.

    Students must pass the Music Education Advisory Review (MEAR) before enrolling in 300-level music education courses. The purpose of the MEAR is to assess the music education candidate’s suitability for a music teaching career. Candidates appear for an interview with music education faculty that includes evaluations of musicianship, communication skills, and personal dispositions. Prerequisites for the MEAR are 1) admission to the College of Fine Arts and 2) successful completion (grade of C or better) of MUSE 194, MUSE 195, MUS 150, and MUS 150L. For complete details, consult your advisor.

    The faculty reserves the right to disqualify from further enrollment or participation in the music education program:

    1. students who fail to demonstrate reasonable progress in their professional development in music,
      –or–
    2. students whose conduct reveals a persistent inability to work effectively with others or an unwillingness to adhere to generally recognized standards of professional behavior,
      –or–
    3. students who do not consult their assigned advisor prior to registering each semester.

    Level 1 Licensure in Music, K–12, in New Mexico allows one to teach any music class at any level of instruction. Where two or more music educators are employed by a single school district, however, a division of responsibilities between instrumental music and vocal/general music commonly exists. The Department of Music, therefore, offers two planned programs in music education, an Instrumental Concentration and a Vocal Concentration.

    Refer to the College of Fine Arts Graduation Requirements for the core curriculum guidelines. CJ 220 Communication for Teachers and PSY 220 Developmental Psychology are accepted to meet core curriculum.

    Prior to student teaching, students must fulfill the following requirements:

    • Admittance to the College of Fine Arts.
    • Completion of all prerequisite courses for student teaching. Consult your advisor for further information.
    • A 2.50 GPA in music and music education courses and a 2.0 GPA overall.
    • Satisfactory completion of the piano proficiency examination. Consult the Department of Music Undergraduate Student Handbook for further information.
    • Satisfactory completion of the Music Education Advisory Review (MEAR).
    • Application for admission to a Teacher Education Program in the College of Education. This process includes passing two parts of the New Mexico Teacher Assessment Tests: Basic Skills and General Knowledge, and a screening interview with the Music Education Committee. It is suggested that you initiate this process at least one year before the beginning of the semester in which you plan to student teach. Consult your assigned advisor for details.
    • Other requirements, including evidence of liability insurance and evidence of a completed tuberculosis skin test or chest X-ray. Consult your advisor for additional information.

    The required recital will normally be given during the last semester in residence.
