It is not permissible to remain in the class when music is played because if a reprehensible act is committed in a gathering, it is obligatory to object to its perpetrator. If he does not respond, the Muslim should leave the place, based on the Almighty’s saying: (And He has already sent down to you in the Book that when you hear the verses of Allah disbelieved in and ridiculed, then do not sit with them until they engage in another conversation. Indeed, you would then be like them. Indeed, Allah will gather the hypocrites and disbelievers in Hell all together) An-Nisa/140. It is recommended to choose a specialization that does not teach this subject.
