The graduate Music History Program is designed to provide particular depth in studies in European and American Music from 1700 to the present, aided by the extensive library resources of Cleveland State University and the surrounding institutions of higher education. Special resources exist for research in twentieth-century Cleveland composers, and the program encourages interdisciplinary studies as well as participation in ensembles such as the Collegium Musicum, which performs early vocal and instrumental music. Selected students have opportunities for preparing professional program notes and assisting with music history and music appreciation courses.

This program may appeal particularly to students wishing to complete an M.M. in musicology before committing to a Ph.D. program, as well as those desiring an M.M. in musicology to complement career goals in other areas.
