Music Education Master's Program (M.S.)

The Master of Science in Music Education provides a flexible curriculum that allows students to earn up to 15 elective units in a field of specialization. In consultation with the graduate adviser, students may select a group of courses in which they are interested, such as music education, applied music, music theory, music history, music composition or other graduate areas of professional interest. Students may elect to work concurrently on the graduate Certificate in Music.

Graduates of this program are usually employed as music teachers in public or private schools in the areas of vocal-general and/or instrumental music. Others are employed as private teachers or administrators, or as church musicians.
