<p>^This is totally true, and true (surprisingly to me) of <em>some</em> tech programs at some places where there is otherwise an appreciation for the E/A form. I won’t name names, but at one tech program the director made a comment in response to a question suggesting that their dept historically didn’t work with the “airy-fairey-electro-acoustic-comp” department ;)</p>
<p>Another school to check out is Wesleyan University. Alvin Lucier and Paula Matthusen are there.</p>
<p>CCM might be worth looking into; electroacoustic music is definitely supported and there are specific concerts devoted to it. There was an electronic music tour following my interview that gave me the opportunity to see the equipment and facilities, listen to a doctoral student talk about the program, and hear some recent projects. I’m required to take an electronic music course as a freshman composition major next semester.</p>
<p>There is some information on the website if you look at “Center for Computer Music” and its subcategories:

<p>I have a son in the Future Music program at University of Oregon. It is a sub-section of the Music department. The first two years will be mainly traditional music, and you do have to be accepted into the Music department on a “traditional” instrument.</p>
