Training
•Bullet: The 18-credit Composition minor is designed for music majors who need to arrange, transcribe, compose and notate music for their own professional settings.
•Bullet: Students can shape the credit sequence around concert music, jazz or media scoring while developing music tailored to particular performers and uses.
Performance & Productions
•Bullet: The creative work addresses practical needs faced by teachers, conductors, performers, church musicians and recording-studio musicians, linking notation craft to music that others can rehearse and perform.
Professional Development
•Bullet: SFA frames the minor as preparation for music work that requires original or adapted material rather than relying only on existing repertoire.
Degree Flexibility
•Bullet: Because the 18 credits are customizable, music majors can align the minor with their creative and professional goals without replacing their primary music degree.
