:: Welcome to the Cal Poly Music
Department ::
The Music Department is one of 17 departments in the College
of Liberal Arts at Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo. We offer a program
which develops musical skills, encourages creativity, and
cultivates vision for the future. A graduate of the program
will be prepared to begin specialized study at the graduate
level, to enter a wide variety of professional careers.
The Bachelor of Arts in Music offered
at Cal Poly introduces a student to the role of music in today's
world, helps form personal goals, and provides the discipline,
skills and knowledge to accomplish those goals. The University's
polytechnic emphasis also provides an excellent opportunity
to explore music in conjunction with a wide range of other
fields.
In addition, the Music Department is a valuable resource for
the non-music major. Its courses and performing ensembles
are open to all students who wish to enrich their lives through
music. Qualified students who wish to explore the subject
in depth have the opportunity to Minor in Music.
The Cal Poly Music Department also
serves as a cultural center for both the university and the
community through a program of public performances by student
and faculty groups, and through clinics, workshops, concerts,
and lectures by outstanding individuals from outside the university.
Acceptance into the music major program
requires a demonstrated ability on an instrument, in voice,
or a talent through other musical media such as composition
or music technologies.
