The undergraduate Music Education program at the University of Washington is designed to equip students with the knowledge and skills necessary to be successful and effective music teachers. As a music education major, students may elect either a vocal/general or instrumental/general concentration. Regardless of concentration, students will have opportunities to experience a broad range of music teaching and learning contexts. At the undergraduate level, the program leads to a combined Bachelor of Arts/Bachelor of Music degree. Upon completion of full-time student teaching, students will receive certification to teach music (grades K-12) in the State of Washington.
