Fourteen semester hours of credit in Liberal Arts are required for the bachelor’s degree in Recording Arts and Sciences. The requirement should be met during the first six semesters of the program through cross-registration for courses offered in the School of Arts and Sciences at The Johns Hopkins University Homewood campus. At least four courses are required: two non-math/science courses approved by the Liberal Arts coordinator, and two math/science courses approved by the Recording Arts coordinator. Students who have not been awarded Advanced Placement standing in English must also take at least four hours of intensive writing courses. Students with advanced standing in English need complete only the four required courses in Liberal Arts.
The degree recital should be performed in the fourth year of the program. If all requirements have been met, students may then receive the performance diploma in May of the fourth year prior to completion of the recording internship. Students who also wish to obtain a Bachelor of Science degree in Electrical Engineering from the Whiting School of Engineering may apply to the Peabody/JHU dougle degree program in their fourth year. Students must fulfill requirements for the performance degree at Peabody before entering the double degree program. Simultaneous enrollment in three majors is not permitted.
Due to credit and scheduling conflicts, it is not possible to combine the Recording Arts major with The Music Education major or The Computer Music major at Peabody, or any Double Degree Program in Electrical Engineering or Arts and Sciences major at the Homewood Campus.
