BM Music Education

The Music Education Program at Northern Kentucky University prepares students for the challenges and rewards of teaching music as a career through coursework and field experience in K 12 public school settings. Future music educators who complete the requirements of the degree receive state certification and licensing for teaching music in public and private schools in Kentucky and Ohio. The programs are offered for students seeking certification: choral emphasis, choral/piano emphasis, and instrumental concentration each of which prepares students to receive certification to teach music in the public school system.
