Bachelor of Music in Music Education This is a four-year professional degree for students who intend to make music
a career either as a public school teacher or supervisor of music. The degree
provides for many professional opportunities and serves also as preparation
for graduate study in music. Upon satisfactory completion of the music education
course of study, the student is certified to teach music at both the elementary
and secondary levels. A half hour recital is required in the junior year. All
students elect an instrumental specialization or a vocal specialization, however,
a double specialization (instrumental/vocal) is available, to be noted on student's
transcript, for BM Education majors. All music education students must pass
a piano proficiency examination before graduation.
