Undergraduate Programs

Bachelor of Music BM (EC-12 Teacher Certification)

A professional degree leading toward a career in teaching music, most likely in a public school setting. This degree prepares a student for the Texas state certification exam in K-12 music education. This degree requires a senior recital, coursework in the College of Education, and a semester of student teaching internship in local public school music classrooms.

Bachelor of Music (BM) with a Major in Performance

A professional degree leading the student toward graduate study and/or a career in music performance. This degree requires a junior and senior recital in the major area of study.

Students, in conjunction with their applied teacher, choose to specialize in Music Education or Applied Music upon entrance to the School of Music.
