The performing artist certificate consists of a two-semester, 18-credit course of study program that hones a promising performer's skills through intensive work in applied lessons, solo and ensemble performance, repertoire study and recitals.

This program is designed for students who already hold a bachelor's degree, serving as an intermediary link between degrees, or as preparation toward a performing career or auditioning for a position with a professional orchestra.
