Music, B.S.Ed.
The Bachelor of Science in Education (B.S.Ed.) degree in Music provides you with the thorough training necessary to be a successful music educator in the public schools of North Carolina and the region. This program includes six semesters of lessons (seven, if you are a vocalist), courses in teaching the various musical instruments and voice, music education methods and materials, and a semester of student teaching. The School offers two concentrations within this degree program.
The instrumental music concentration prepares students to teach beginning band, concert band, and marching band in middle school and high school. The general music concentration prepares students for a career in teaching general music at the elementary school level or choral music at the middle- or high-school level.
