Master's Program in Jazz History and Research
 

Students

There are currently 25 students in the program (including first year, second year, and part-time students), with 7 to 9 graduating each year.  Our students range in age from 22 to 65, and have backgrounds in jazz performance, free lance writing, jazz radio, history, etc. While in the program, six of them have published chapters in books, liner notes for CDs, and articles for websites. All these opportunities become available to students in the program. They are also teaching at colleges and universities and, of course, some of them continue to perform and to teach privately. Some graduates are faculty at other institutions or are attending Ph.D. programs.
