The University is dedicated to • outstanding teaching, scholarship, and service, and to forging connections among these three interactive components of its mission; • fostering student-faculty relationships that enrich teaching and learning, develop scholar- ship, and encourage public service; • promoting diversity and an understanding of global perspectives; and • advancing the intellectual, cultural, and economic life of the state and region. Defining Principles for the Strategic Planning Process YSU’s strategic plan represents a shared vision of what YSU seeks to become and specific strat- egies to achieve it. An open and continuous endeavor, the strategic planning process is designed to guide a dynamic University capable of responding in a timely fashion to new opportunities and changing internal and external circumstances. The plan reflects campus- and community-wide collaboration and discussion. The Strategic Plan will • represent YSU’s commitment to provide all students open access to a high-quality educa- tion; • state how YSU interacts with and responds to community needs and opportunities; • guide development of annual action plans and budgets, connecting human and other re- sources to identified priorities and supporting initiatives; • guide the University in identifying programs and activities that will be initiated, contin- ued, and discontinued; and • establish a vision for achieving identified priorities by YSU’s centennial year in 2008.

The Department also offers programs that normally lead to the Doctor of Musical Arts degree in Music Performance. Masters Degrees in Music History and Theory, in Ethnomusicology, in Composition, and in Music Performance are also available. Stony Brook’s programs have grown out of an unusual partnership between the academy and the conservatory. The Music Department has a distinguished and well-balanced faculty in the areas of music history, theory, ethnomusicology, composition, and performance. The degree programs are designed to favor interaction among musical disciplines that have traditionally been kept separate. For example, the performance programs at Stony Brook all have an academic component. Graduate courses typically have a healthy mix of students from all areas. A number of courses are team taught by two or more faculty members, examining topics from several disciplinary viewpoints.

YSU’s mission was revised to align with the Chancellor’s Strategic Plan for Higher Education 2008–2017: Building Strong Communities Through Applied Learning and Research, which called for universities in the University System of Ohio to stimulate Ohio’s economic rebirth by graduating more students, keeping graduates in Ohio, and attracting more out-of- state degree holders.

  • 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).
