[ mission ]

The mission of the School of Music is to provide an education that will produce outstanding musicians who are skilled, knowledgeable, creative and articulate. At the same time, Carnegie Mellon University offers the unique opportunity to broaden students' educational base, while preparing them for professional careers in music. We take seriously our commitment to provide a rigorous music education within a university setting. We often describe the School as The Destination for the Academically Gifted Musician.

Today's "Complete Musician" must be an entrepreneur, with a keen eye for opportunity, a solid business sense, the courage to travel around the world, and the willingness to embrace technology. We seek to create an educational environment that inspires the serious performer, composer, conductor, educator to also develop these non-musical skills.
