UTEP Department of Music

Welcome to the UTEP Department of Music

We offer outstanding undergraduate degrees in Music Education, Performance, Theory/Composition and Commercial Music. Our graduate program offers degrees in Music Education and Music Performance with additional emphases in conducting, composition, and theory. We provide a high-quality education with a world-class faculty. While located in the far southwest tip of the state of Texas, our faculty and students are visible across the country and around the world in major conferences, performance venues, and leading academic journals.

UTEP is located in El Paso at the Western tip of the state. In fact, we are in a different time zone than the rest of the state. With our Mexican sister city Juarez, whose population is 1.8 million, these two cities combine to form the largest binational metropolitan area in the world.

For information on our programs, please browse through our website, write, or call us. We are always happy to hear from you and look forward to helping future miners get started on their path to success.
