About University of Miami Frost School of Music:
Since its founding in 1926 and accreditation in 1939 by the National Association of Schools of Music, the University of Miami Frost School of Music has become one of the most comprehensive schools in all of higher education. Even before the School pioneered such innovative programs as music industry, music engineering technology, and studio music and jazz, it offered strong traditional programs in composition/theory, performance, and music education. A flexible, well-rounded curriculum, designed to give graduates a professional edge, remains a hallmark of the School.
More than 58 full-time faculty and 56 adjunct faculty are active in and out of the classroom as dedicated music professionals. It is not just what they know, but also what they do to further their own professional careers that make them effective role models. By studying with professors who are highly regarded in their respective fields, students at every level- undergraduate and graduate- can be assured that their professors will hold them to the highest professional standards.
