School of Music
Semper Pro Musica
Small enough to devote individual attention to each student, but large enough to offer comprehensive degree programs leading to bachelor's and master's degrees (in education, performance, and academic areas of music) and doctoral programs (in church music).

Profiles
"Students at the Baylor music school have a well rounded education; much more so than students choosing to attend music conservatories that focus on only one thing."
"Baylor's School of Music prepared me for a great music career; its world-class faculty was always available to share their expertise and provide meaningful advice."
"Baylor Music Ed gave me the awareness to recognize and acknowledge everyone's unique learning process and the tools to be able to tailor my teaching approach to a wide variety of skill levels."
