Course summary
This program's purpose is to prepare students to teach music in elementary and secondary schools. Students completing this degree program qualify for a Colorado K-12 music teaching license. Students also may apply for teaching licenses in other states that have reciprocity agreements with Colorado. Because of the varying challenges and opportunities associated with teaching music in K-12 school contexts, the undergraduate music education curriculum strikes a balance between specialization and generalization. BME students must demonstrate a sufficiently broad knowledge of the entire music program/curriculum, but also possess the specialized skills necessary to be a successful general music, choir, orchestra, or band instructor. This is a four-year professional program.
