Music at Virginia Tech offers a competitive, individualized curriculum with a focus on quality instruction and practical experience in music education, performance, technology and composition. Music faculty members are active worldwide as performers, scholars and clinicians. Students reap the benefits of a selective department with a strong sense of community, while studying at a major research university with its breadth of cultural, educational and social opportunities. The Department of Music welcomes students with a broad aesthetic and intellectual curiosity—we encourage those with interdisciplinary interests to pursue double majors.
