Transfer Pattern Description:
This Arts and Sciences degree pattern is designed to help students
transfer to colleges and universities that offer a baccalaureate degree
with a major in Music. Beyond the General Education requirements and
options, this pattern should be considered in light of the requirements
of the selected transfer institution. Students should consult with a
transfer coordinator or an advisor for information about specific
requirements.
The Music Department at CCBC Essex is an accredited institutional member
of the National Association of Schools of Music. The transfer pattern
follows guidelines established by that organization and identifies
courses required for NASM certification.
NOTE: Although this pattern follows a two-year plan, students who work
more than 15 hours per week or have other major obligations outside of
school are advised to take fewer courses each semester over a longer
period of time. Students who work 25 hours or more are advised to take
12 credits or less each semester.
The mission of the music program of The Community College of Baltimore
County is to provide students with opportunities to experience and learn
about a broad spectrum of music (from the European fine art tradition
and the many types of American music to the music of cultures around the
world); to partner with students in developing the verbal and technical
skills necessary to communicate through music and to articulate the
knowledge of music; to inspire students to participate in musical
activities, and to foster the intellectual,creative, and spiritual
growth of musicians by instilling in them a commitment to artistic and
personal excellence.
