Our students are encouraged to be inclusive, independent thinkers, within a learning community that nurtures discipline and cooperation, founded on the belief that music is a fundamental force expressed in diverse ways, with transformative potential for the individual and society. Both the BA and BM degrees prepare students for advanced collegiate study in music by fostering intellectual and creative expression through research and scholarship, educating students in general ways that enrich, enlighten, and encourage the development of musical expression and appreciation. Students are trained to perform in concerts and other high quality musical events for SF State and Bay Area communities, thereby assisting in the cultivation of audiences for the future. The Bachelor of Arts in Music offers a humanistic approach to the study of music as a significant aspect of human traditions and cultures. This degree program provides a broad liberal arts preparation with significant study in music. The structure of the degree program offers students several avenues to pursue individual musical interests as preparation for careers in music or music-related fields. In consultation with an adviser, students complete an elective emphasis appropriately focused on their area of interest, which may include western classical, jazz, and other global cultures, along with musicology, ethnomusicology, technology, and composition for film and games.

JEIE/DIVERSITY STATEMENT PROMPT Diversity is a defining feature of California’s past, present, and future. Increasing the diversity of our educators to better reflect the population of California is just one aspect of the College of Education’s dedication to just, equitable, and inclusive education. Diversity refers to the variety of personal experiences, values, and worldviews that arise from differences of culture and circumstance. Such differences include race, ethnicity, gender, age, religion, language, abilities/disabilities, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, geographic region, and more. All College of Education students leave with a perspective that recognizes, acknowledges, and respects the knowledge and strengths all students bring from their communities. This perspective is known as Just, Equitable, and Inclusive Education (JEIE) and is evident in all our programs. College of Education students use this perspective to make community-based assets an integral component of curricular and pedagogical development. In this way, our graduates learn to value and draw upon students’ backgrounds not only to support them in developing skills leading to success in the broader society, but also as a mechanism to transform our communities. We believe that all faculty and staff who work for the college must share these same commitments.
