Our department and programs are accredited by the National Association of Schools of Music (NASM), requiring routine self-evaluation to meet evolving quality standards. The music therapy curriculum is also approved by the American Music Therapy Association (AMTA).

The department laboratory space includes a state of the art Critical Listening Environment for Audio Recording (CLEAR) and the Donald Tavel Arts and Technology Research Lab. These labs provide opportunities to engage in cutting edge creative performances and real-life recording opportunities. The integration of the music within the School of Engineering and Technology provides a multitude of original collaborations across departments. Furthermore, the placement of the department on the IUPUI campus, provides our music therapy students access to 3 high quality healthcare systems to engage in research and clinical experiences.

We welcome you to explore the opportunities described throughout the website. Please contact us with any questions.

Best wishes,

Debra Burns, PhD, MT-BC
