Bachelor of Arts in Music: Music Production and Engineering (B.A.)

Gain in-depth knowledge of industry technologies as you prepare for a career in the music industry.

At Colorado Christian University, you can combine your passion for music with your education by earning a Bachelor of Arts in Music. The music degree is perhaps the most versatile of all music degrees, preparing you for a broad range of musical and non-musical careers.

Music Production and Engineering

In the Music Production and Engineering Program students gain an understanding of the art and science of both live and recording environments. Students learn how music is captured and produced through audio, video, lighting (AVL), and networking systems. This is an in-depth program where theory and many opportunities to practice newly-learned skills are realized. Students are equipped to be able to express their Christian faith through technology, music, and relationships while working within the music industry.

Music at CCU

The focus of CCU's School of Music is to teach you how to impact your culture for Christ, as well as how to honor Him and to share His love on campus and around the world, using excellence in music to do so. Integrated offerings combine classical, jazz, contemporary, and world music with a progressive and distinctly Christian worldview to develop students who are leaders — both in the world and in the Church.

As a music major, you'll receive personal attention by an exceptional, creative, and caring faculty who are themselves active performers and clinicians who desire to not only teach but to also mentor students. Opportunities include national tours for major ensembles, and an on-campus recording studio.
