Bachelor of Arts and Science - Music & Computer Science (Optional Co-op)

For the Bachelor of Arts and Science, students must complete two majors: an Arts major, and a Science major.

Students can pursue their passion for music while exploring diverse courses. To those who are interested in music and another subject area, a BA (Music) allows them to explore their interests in the sciences, social sciences and humanities, while still focusing on music.

Through the classical music programs, students can choose a performance route and receive one-on-one instruction from master performer-teachers. Entrance to studio courses is dependent on a successful audition.

Students will attend guest artist classes and have multiple performance opportunities throughout the year. Recitals showcase the student’s development and accomplishments as a musician, and their experience is enhanced by participation in ensembles.

Areas of concentration:

• Brass • Composition • Guitar • Percussion • Piano • Strings • Voice • Woodwinds

Computer Science

Computer science is the study of algorithms and data structures and their applications in designing new and efficient solutions to industrial, technological, environmental or social problems. Students will learn to tackle difficult problems using a variety of high-tech tools and approaches, and effectively communicate their expertise to others by coupling their technical learning with a solid grounding in liberal education. The program is designed to enable graduates to gain both theoretical knowledge and practical experience, including access to state-of-the-art hardware and software in the three computer labs whenever they need to use them.
