Majors that can be combined with the Recording curriculum to form the Bachelor's Degree in Recording Arts and Sciences.

• Composition
• Guitar
• Jazz Performance
• Orchestral Instruments (Woodwinds, Brass, Percussion Strings, Harp)
• Organ
• Piano
• Computer Music (Click to email Scott Metcalfe)
• Voice (Click to email Scott Metcalfe)

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.

Student with AP credits may substitute the following:
