All students whose applied music concentration is in a band/orchestral instrument or voice participate in music laboratories appropriate to their intended teaching area each term/semester in residence.Any deviation must be approved by the associate dean for academic affairs. When the student has completed the 12-semester-hour requirement in the applied concentration, the Applied Music Examining Committee in the student’s area of concentration decides if any additional hours are required.Ĭandidates for graduation must complete all of the following laboratory requirements. Those students who choose a keyboard or guitar concentration must take the secondary voice/instrument appropriate to the intended teaching area and qualify for participation in the appropriate music laboratory (see subsequent section, “ Graduation Requirements”). It is recommended that the student’s applied music concentration be appropriate to the intended teaching specialty (voice for the general music and choral areas, and band/orchestral instrument for the instrumental areas). The curriculum is designed to develop teacher knowledge and skills as a public school general music teacher, choral director, band director or orchestra director. Students majoring in general, choral and instrumental music must minor in education and complete a minimum of 12 hours of applied music in one concentration and 2 hours in the secondary applied field.
This degree program also leads to Texas teacher certification in all-level music. The curriculum emphasizes public school teacher competencies in music performance, literature and pedagogy. This program is designed to prepare students for entry into the music teaching profession and related career areas.
A minimum grade of C is required for all courses listed as ”major requirements” and “minor requirements” for the Bachelor of Music with a major in general, choral and instrumental music.
