About Us
Welcome to the The Ohio State University School of Music. As part of a comprehensive research university, we offer degrees and programs in performance, music education, composition and music research at the bachelor, master, and doctoral levels. We are an accredited institution with the National Association of Schools of Music.
The Ohio State University School of Music educates students for professional careers as composers, performers, scholars, and teachers. As an integral part of a major public university with a strong commitment to teaching, research, and service, the school recognizes the relationship that binds music to other academic and artistic disciplines. The School aims to provide, at the highest level, instruction in the study and practice of music and, in so doing, to promote an awareness of music as a humanistic study. The School encourages musical research in all its dimensions by providing students and faculty opportunities for performance, creative activity, and scholarly inquiry. The School is dedicated to sustaining and advancing musical culture in the academy and in the society at large, and it endeavors to meet service obligations to various communities within and beyond the university. Recognizing the dynamic and evolving character of music in contemporary life, the School acknowledges an ongoing responsibility to evaluate its programs and procedures, and to investigate fresh approaches to the realization of its mission. In keeping with the university’s broader mission, the school is committed to nurturing the best of Ohio’s students, while developing and maintaining excellence and diversity by recruiting nationally and internationally.
