TIMARA majors begin their studies with the core 200-level curriculum. Non-majors frequently begin their TIMARA journey with one of our 100-level courses, each of which provides a comprehensive introduction to different topics in music technology.

Depending on their skill level, interests, and availability, non-majors may take several 100-level courses, join the 200-level sequence, or enroll in one of our 300-level advanced special topics courses. The core 200-level courses are not required for all advanced courses, so if you see a course that interests you, reach out to the instructor to learn more!
