There are two master’s programs available in music education: a Master of Arts in Teaching (M.A.T.) and a Master of Education (M.Ed.). These degrees are offered through the College of Education in cooperation with the Department of Music. For specifics about courses, see the Music Education listing in the College of Education section. The M.A.T. program is for people who have a Bachelor of Arts and wish to attain certification to teach music in the Florida public schools along with a master’s degree. People entering this program without a B.A. in music will be expected to complete undergraduate requirements for a music major in addition to the requirements for the master’s degree. Undergraduate courses in music education may also be required as corequisites for all students who are missing key courses necessary to meet a standard of excellence as a music educator. The M.Ed. program is for people who are already certified teachers and wish to develop advanced skills and understandings in the field of music education. All students take a range of courses in education, music, and music education. A written examination and an action research study are required at the completion of the degree.
