The Mansfield University Department of Music provides an environment that promotes academic, musical and personal growth as well as intellectual, ethical and aesthetic values. The department serves the regional, national and international communities by developing human and material resources. The department of music is committed to stimulating a continuous pursuit of knowledge, understanding and skills by students and faculty. The Music Department offers five degree programs leading to the baccalaureate degree with a major in music. Students in other majors with appropriate interest and aptitude may pursue a minor in music. Degree programs include: performance, music education, music therapy, music with elective studies in business, and a BA in music. Students must complete a live audition for acceptance into a music degree program. Please refer to the department for audition information and other entrance requirements. All music programs are accredited by the National Association of Schools of Music (NASM).

Students in all music degree programs are required to complete a core of essential courses in music theory, music history and literature, applied music and piano, and they must participate in music ensembles. All music students are required to pass a piano proficiency. Each individual degree program has additional proficiency requirements to better prepare the student for his chosen field of endeavor. During the fourth semester of study, all students will complete a sophomore review.

The review will consist of performance on primary instrument, piano, singing and sight-reading, rhythmic reading and conducting, written career goals and grade point average. The review must be passed to continue into upper division music courses.
