Additional Requirements
All graduate certificate students will complete a final project, the nature and scope of which will be determined between the student and the studio instructor. A performance is not required, but students who choose this as their final project may opt for a half-recital (dependent on availability of concert halls). The final project will be evaluated by the studio instructor and-if appropriate-by other faculty members, as determined by the department chair.
