The mission of the Department of Music at the University of Dayton is to develop
each student's aesthetic perception of music, creative expression through music,
and integration of music with other disciplines. Through curricular offerings in
professional and general education courses and through solo and ensemble
performances, the Department of Music serves the individual student,
the University community, and the community-at-large.
The Department of Music offers academic coursework to foster understanding
and critical thinking about music's place in culture; diverse musical heritages;
practical instruction to develop musical skills; and performance opportunities
to enrich each student's career aspirations or avocational interests.
The department also contributes to the development of future civic,
religious, and academic leaders by promoting the value of life-long learning
in the musical arts.
