THE MAJOR IN CONTEMPORARY MUSIC
18
As of fall 2020, students declaring the major in Contemporary Music must take twelve (12) courses, outlined as follows. Students must earn a grade of C or higher in all courses to meet the requirements for the major in Contemporary Music. Declare your major by following the process outlined in Declaring a Major. Students who have declared the major in Contemporary Music prior to fall 2020 but wish to follow the fall 2020 curriculum may consult their Student Success Advisor about submitting a Change of Catalog Year request.

The Contemporary Music major includes three foundational courses on music theories, technologies, and research methods, plus a rotating selection of music electives. Most courses are suitable for students at all levels of musical training and experience, and most courses do not assume the ability to read music notation. Read more about the program at Lang's website. Only specific courses satisfy the major requirements, including electives. Courses should be chosen carefully, in consultation with the Director of Undergraduate Studies/Departmental Faculty Advisor and your Student Success advisor.
