Teaching Licensure optioncan provide the most comprehensive training for a career as a music teacher, as it focuses on both the study of music as well as the profession of teaching.

Program Learning Outcomes

Upon successful completion of this program, students will be able to:

  • Demonstrate a comprehensive knowledge of music theory. They will do so by analyzing selected works in which they will identify and relate fundamental musical elements such as phrase structure, organization of harmonic elements, and the construction of rhythmic and melodic materials.
  • Demonstrate an understanding of the major historical musical styles by placing selected works, for which they will be provided scores and recordings, into appropriate time frames. During this process they will document and comment on elements such as harmonic style, melodic and rhythmic structure, dynamic structure, the use of ornamentation, etc., as they relate to each of the historical style periods.
  • Perform an upper divisional jury at the end of their sophomore year (30 minutes for performance majors, 20 minutes for general music majors and teaching licensure majors).
  • Students in the Teaching Licensure Option will display the technical and musical ability to perform significant musical literature at an advanced level.
  • Students in the Teaching Licensure Option will perform an adjudicated 45 minute recital. Prior to this recital, they must qualify by successfully performing a pre-recital jury for the music faculty.
  • Students in the Teaching Licensure Option will display an acquaintance with current and traditional methodology for teaching music.
