Bachelor of Music with a Major in Music Education
music + education coursework + Internship = future teachers
Music Education majors take classes to become certified teachers at the elementary, middle, or high school level, and we have an excellent track record of placing graduates in teaching jobs. In addition to a broad range of music classes and performance opportunities, the degree features professional education courses, concluding with a teaching internship so that students work in their chosen field and graduate with expertise in music plus skills in the classroom.
