Rutgers University-Camden

Internationally active faculty and small class sizes provide students of music at Rutgers University–Camden with the dynamic environment to explore and develop their musical talent. Our students can choose pathways in Composition and Music Technology, Theories and Histories, Performance, and Music Education—all within a dynamic liberal arts curriculum that provides them with the skills and knowledge they need to succeed. Student-proposed majors in other areas of music, such as Studio Recording and Engineering, Music for Film and Video Games can be created in consultation with faculty.

As part of a strong, interdisciplinary Department of Fine Arts, our students also benefit from exposure to visual art, theater, and new digital media perspectives. Our proximity to Philadelphia and New York makes internships and other opportunities readily available, and allows our students to take advantage of many splendid cultural and artistic activities. Whether you are planning to teach, pursue graduate studies, work in a music production industry, embark on a performance career, or simply enjoy expressing yourself through music, the Rutgers–Camden music program is the ideal place to start.
