Music Education

Music education is a major emphasis of the Department of Music. A comprehensive curriculum leading toward a K-12 teaching certificate is offered to students in all areas of music study. A unique team-taught emphasis provides students with a diversity of hands- on teaching experiences, techniques, and resources required for a successful career. Nationally recognized clinicians and educators regularly conduct clinics and workshops throughout the year offering advanced experiences in a broad spectrum of teaching situations. A current Music Education Resource Center houses a variety of materials for students use. The newly constructed Music Technology Laboratory offers students hands- on experiences with the latest technology in music education. A nationally recognized and award winning collegiate chapter of the Music Educators National Conference provides students additional exposure to national leaders and issues related to music education.

Graduate music education students can structure their course of study to reflect their individual interests. Flexibility is a major goal of the graduate music program. The curriculum is set on a regular rotation so students may complete their degree in a variety of timely options. A student's curriculum may reflect either a thesis option or course option depending on the student's focus and goals.
