The future of artistry

The College of Music is one of the country’s top public music programs, including impressive facilities that reflect the talent and artistry of our students and faculty. 

In particular, our Imig Music Building—recently expanded by 64,000 square feet—not only keeps our music programs thriving, but also encourages collaboration and innovation in growing areas like music entrepreneurship, wellness, and media and technology. In the Imig Music Building gallery, explore photos and architects' renderings of our new and renovated spaces. These performance, rehearsal, studio, learning, staff, wellness and entrepreneurship spaces help our students and faculty flourish—intellectually, physically, emotionally and musically.
