Music Education

This course helps hone teaching skills required in the music classroom.

The undergraduate Occupational Track programme in Music Education is designed in collaboration with SaPa, the Subramaniam Academy of Performing Arts. SaPa is on a mission to make quality music education accessible to all. A large part of this involves creating enough music teachers to build the ecosystem for music education, and creating certifications and knowledge sets to make music teachers employable, both in schools and at music institutions.

The Music Education OT aligns with this objective and aims to offer students an understanding of music itself, and how music may be taught in different environments. This will help students be employable, contribute to music education, advocate for music for all and cultural democracy at multiple levels.

The Music OT carries 24 credits distributed across 5 core courses and an optional field practice component of 15 credits in the seventh semester. The progression of the courses can be seen below.
