Music Performance: Music Technology & Production

The Osprey Map provides a term-by-term sample schedule for each undergraduate academic program at the University of North Florida. It is designed to guide students in the selection of courses each term. The "Mile Marker" courses are those courses that should be completed before or by the end of that term. Following the sample schedule, and completing the mile marker courses at the appropriate point of your undergraduate career, will facilitate graduation in four years. The term-by-term model assumes full-time enrollment. For students enrolled part-time, the sample schedule and mile markers should be followed based on the number of credits completed. The Osprey Map should be used in consultation with an academic advisor.

The Music Performance Concentration in Music Technology and Production prepares students for a life in music. UNF Music graduates hold positions in all aspects of the music industry, including performing in the nation's top professional and military ensembles, composing and arranging for the industry's leading artists, touring internationally, and serving as leading pedagogues in music education. This concentration prepares students for careers in all facets of music technology and production, including studio recording and live sound engineering. For additional information visit the College of Arts and Sciences Advising Office webpage.

Career Planning
Engaging in career planning activities is significant to student success. UNF offers customized career centers to deliver targeted programs, events, services and resources. First-Year students should visit the Career Services webpage and Sophomore or higher level students with a declared COAS major should visit the College of Arts and Sciences Career Success Center.

Students should refer to their personalized Degree Evaluation provided by an academic advisor and to other university resources for additional university and college-specific policies. Visit the undergraduate university catalog for more information.

Summer terms may be utilized to facilitate graduation in four years.

  • Visit the university catalog for a list of General Education requirements. An Associate in Arts (AA) degree from a Florida public university, state college or community college satisfies UNF general education and Gordon Rule requirements. Math selection is contingent upon appropriate placement score, the student's major and credit received through accelerated mechanisms (Advanced Placement, International Baccalaureate, Dual Enrollment, etc).
  • Visit the School of Music webpage for a complete list of Music prerequisites.
  • Program Admission requires a decision by a college administrator or faculty member. Applicants are not guaranteed admission into this Specialized Admissions program. Find admission criteria for this program on the college website, university catalog or consult the School of Music. Admission into the Music Performance major requires a successful performance audition on an appropriate instrument or voice. Students may take a piano proficiency test to waive the class piano sequence. Students without piano proficiency must complete four semesters of Class Piano. A Music Theory proficiency exam is also required. Required Music courses are offered Fall and Spring Terms only.
  • Music Technology and Production students are required to enroll in four semesters of major ensemble. Placement in selective ensembles is determined by competitive audition.
  • Students must notify the School of Music 24 hours in advance if the first day of class will be missed. Failure to do so may forfeit the student's place in that class.
  • A minimum grade of "C" is required in all academic course work and minimum grade of "B" in applied music areas for the Bachelor of Music (BM). Review the Student Probation Policy and the Sophomore Review policy located in the School of Music Student Handbook.
  • Civic Literacy Requirement: Prior to graduation from a Florida state university, students must demonstrate competency in civic literacy through successful completion of a civic literacy course (AMH 2020 or POS 2041) and by achieving a passing score on an assessment. Consult an academic advisor, the university catalog and visit the Civic Literacy webpage for additional information.
  • A minimum of 120 hours (48 hours at the upper 3000/4000 level) is required for the bachelor's degree. Students may need to complete Free Elective credit at the upper level (3000/4000) to satisfy the minimum 48 semester hours of upper level hours for graduation.
