The Miami University Marching Band (MUMB), directed by Dr. Brooke Johnson, represents a diverse cross section of the Miami community. Members of the MUMB come from every division and almost every major at the university. Music majors represent less than 25% of the group. Membership is for all woodwind, brass, battery percussion, sideline percussion, colorguard, twirlers, and dance team.

Pre-season week commences a full week ahead of the start of the fall semester. Pre-season week is a training process that brings together all members in order to prepare for the coming season. All members, new and returning, are required to attend. On-campus rehearsals take place at Presser Hall and Tappan band field.
