Abstract
(type = abstract)
One of the professional responsibilities of the school music teacher is to guide students on the path of careers in music. One way researchers have examined students pursuing music careers is through socialization and occupational identity. Most of the research in this domain is conducted on music education and performance majors. The purpose of this study was to explore how undergraduate sound recording technology majors in a traditional school of music construct their occupational identity. A case study using a survey and interviews was conducted. Thirty students responded to the survey and 15 of them volunteered to be interviewed. Analysis showed that school music teachers and parents were positive influences on music career decisions in high school and college faculty, students, and experiences in the sound recording major were the most positive influences in college. Qualitative analysis revealed musician and sound engineer identities were conflicted. Students reported stereotype and stigma about their musicianship while being proud of the technology skills that make them unique and useful in the social structure of the school. Analysis also revealed a strong sense of family and community, where students and faculty in the major are unified around a common set of experiences and skills.
