An Oregon music degree can start with a Bachelor of Science (or Art), a Bachelor of Music, Masters of Music, and Ph D.
Currently, PSU and U of O are the only Oregon music schools offering Ph.D.s and for this level, you certainly want a big music university with depth in many fields.
However, for a bachelor music degree or masters of music degree, Western Oregon University should be one of your top considerations.
Getting a music degree in Oregon is challenging, requiring extensive hours of practice, class time and rehearsal time. The last thing you need is to spend 2 hours a day fighting through traffic, finding parking spaces and just trying to get somewhere. WOU might be the right Oregon music school for you, if you want extraordinarily high instruction quality combined with a relaxed, easy to get around campus.
WOU has the following Oregon Music degree options:
- Bachelor of Science, Music Major
- Bachelor of Arts, Music Major
- Bachelor of Music (music major and minor, focused in music)
- Master of Contemporary Music (MM)
