As one of the largest universities in the world, The Ohio State University offers a wealth of resources on its beautiful campus in Columbus, Ohio. In the midst of this educational community, the School of Music is part of the College of Arts and Sciences, the academic heart of Ohio State.
The school is a unit large enough to take advantage of the endless possibilities provided by a world-class university, yet small enough to attend to the individual needs of its students. Founded in the late 1800s, the School of Music offers today’s students, faculty and guest artists an innovative place for making exceptional music, stimulating artistic growth, exploring educational methodology, and conducting groundbreaking research.
Divided into distinct areas of study, each with its own area head, the School of Music has a faculty of nationally and internationally recognized performing artists, composers, scholars and master teachers who are specialists in their fields. The faculty serves a student body of approximately 300 undergraduate and 90 graduate music majors, as well as hundreds of non-music majors who are pursuing music minors, taking classes or participating in one of the many performance ensembles.
