As a music therapy major, you will engage in traditional academic music studies (e.g., music theory, aural skills, music history), piano, voice, guitar, percussion, improvisation, music technology, psychology, and music therapy courses.
Graduates of the program take the national certification examination administered by the Certification Board for Music Therapists (CBMT). After passing this exam, you'll be a board-certified music therapist prepared to leverage music within a therapeutic context to help individuals enact dynamic change in their lives.
