MASTER OF SACRED MUSIC (M.S.M.)

The Master of Sacred Music (M.S.M.) is available to students who have a Bachelor’s degree or its academic equivalent from a recognized institution
in music. A student may qualify for the M.S.M. degree program without a Bachelor’s degree in music under special circumstances. The Dean of Students should be contacted for more details.

The M.S.M. is awarded upon completion of 64 credit hours; 21 credits of church music and 43 credits from the Seminary’s other departments. Because each student’s area of emphasis and specialization will vary, there are no required
courses for this degree.
However, each student qualifying for the M.S.M. degree must create a 64 credit curriculum for himself or herself and have it approved by a faculty advisor before commencement of classes.
