The future of music is where science intersects with art.
Music constantly evolves, and so does the technology that surrounds it. Our Bachelor of Science in Music Technology & Innovation combines skills in music and engineering to prepare students to be the leaders of our evolving sonic landscape.
Students in the program take courses in three interrelated areas: music history, theory, and aesthetics; sound recording methodology and technique; and musicianship.
In addition to these music and music technology courses, students choose one of two concentrations, which they pursue through courses in the University’s Tagliatela College of Engineering:
- The Concentration in Electronics. This concentration places a focus on the analog technology of sound through classes in calculus, physics, and electrical engineering.
- The Concentration in Digital Systems. With this concentration, students focus on the digital technology of sound through classes in computer programming, digital logic, and networking.
At the end of the program, students bring together these interdisciplinary skills in a capstone project in music technology that demonstrates both a technical understanding of sound and a musical understanding of technology.
