Electives in Speech and other areas. Music Theatre Program Offered jointly by the School of Speech and the School of Music, the Music Theatre Program provides an opportunity for students majoring in voice or theatre to create a second area of specialization crucial to their development as music theatre artists. Theatre majors in the program work regularly with a voice teacher and are exposed to other School of Music offerings. A total of 30 freshmen and sophomores from the two schools are accepted for the program each year after spring-quarter auditions. After completing undergraduate course work in three years, HPME students join the incoming class of the Northwestern University Medical School at the beginning of the fourth year, receiving a bachelor of science degree at the end of that year and an MD degree three years later.
Admission is selective, and a special application is required.
