The Department of Music at the University of California, Davis,

performance, and composition. Undergraduate majors can
pursue a Bachelor of Arts degree in music, focusing their studies
in either performance, composition and theory, or history.
Candidates for a Doctor of Philosophy degree can specialize in
the fields of composition and theory,
musicology, or ethnomusicology. The department

distinguished faculty serve
undergraduate and graduate students. Many of the
department’s graduates successfully continue their education in
the best graduate schools and move into a variety of related
careers. Department resources include a diverse collection of
