Music at Virginia Tech

The Virginia Tech School of Performing Arts offers undergraduate degree programs in music performance, composition, education, and technology. Our alumni are regularly accepted into the finest graduate programs in music, perform professional throughout the United States, and include some of the leading music educators in the Commonwealth of Virginia and the Mid-Atlantic region. The school offers everything an aspiring musician and music educator needs to succeed in the twenty-first century.

The curriculum combines an excellent liberal arts education and a low professor/student ratio with the library, computer facilities, and cultural interaction that only a major, comprehensive university can provide. Learning is enhanced by the use of music technology across the curriculum and innovative programs. Virginia Tech welcomes students with a broad aesthetic and intellectual curiosity and encourages students who are interested in pursuing double majors.
