  • Bachelor of Arts/Bachelor of Music Double-Degree Option 1
    Bachelor of Arts/Bachelor of Music Double-Degree Option 1 BACHELOR OF ARTS/BACHELOR OF MUSIC DOUBLE-DEGREE OPTION • Students must meet the application requirements for both the Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of Music degree programs. • Students engage in professional study in music and study in the liberal arts, leading to both Bachelor of Music and Bachelor of Arts degrees. • The duration of the double-degree option may vary among disciplines but will be less than the sum of the durations of both degree programs if undertaken separately. For most students, pursuit of a double-degree option will require five years of study. It should be noted that in a few cases (notably when the B.A. graduation major is in the natural sciences) completion of all requirements in five years may not be possible. • Students pursuing the double-degree option may choose between the five Bachelor of Music graduation majors (church music, composition, elective studies, music education, and performance) and any of the Bachelor of Arts graduation majors except music. • Students shall meet the requirements for the B.A. graduation major and B.M. graduation major, as well as the OLE Core Curriculum requirements and general graduation requirements for the two degrees. Note that degree requirements completed for one degree also count toward the corresponding requirements in the other degree. • The final two years of coursework in pursuit of the degrees must be spent in residence. 17 of the last 20 full-course credits must be earned through St. Olaf. Some students may require up to 43 total credits in order to complete all requirements for both degrees.

  • The International Recognition of Qualifications in the Field of Music
    Music Study, Mobility, and Accountability Project The International Recognition of Qualifications in the Field of Music Introduction This document provides an overview of qualifications in the field of music, their titles, meanings, and uses. It presents information concerning: • Present conditions and the dynamics of change in Europe and the United States regarding the meaning and use of qualifications and credentials. • Recognition of studies completed successfully by students in exchange programmes. • Recognition of completed qualifications and credentials such as degrees, diplomas, certifi- cates, or courses of study. • A nation-by-nation summary of requirements to enter regulated music professions where academic qualifications or credentials are normally specified. Each of these topics is complex; specific definitions and practices can vary among nations and institutions. Policies and practices change over time. Readers using the information provided here are encouraged to obtain a full understanding of the ways qualifications and credentials work in each specific national or institutional situation in which they are engaged. The Recognition of Qualifications in the European Union Recognition of qualifications is one of the conditions for the establishment of a European Union (EU) area for higher education and for the European free market, which is based on the free movement of goods and workers. The European Union has therefore developed far-reaching rules on the recognition of qualifications. A distinction needs to be made between recognition for academic purposes (for the continuing of studies abroad or for a study period abroad as part of the regular studies) and recognition for professional purposes (to be allowed to work in a certain profession).
