Program details

Overview

Music Education at the University of Regina is offered as a five-year Bachelor of Music Education, jointly delivered by the Faculties of Media, Art, and Performance, and Education; a four-year Bachelor of Music is also available in the department. The program combines coursework in music, music pedagogy, and education with individual applied study on the student's instrument or voice, including courses such as instrumental conducting, vocal techniques, and methods and materials for class instrumental instruction. A distinctive feature of the program is an extensive internship with supervised contact hours in the public school system. Graduates of the Bachelor of Music Education are granted the Professional 'A' Certificate by the provincial Department of Education, qualifying them to teach. The program is delivered on the University of Regina's main campus. It suits students aiming to teach music in schools or work in music education administration. Most graduates go on to work as music educators, music teachers, private instructors, or arts administrators, applying both their musical training and their supervised classroom experience from the internship component.

Requirements

Minimum GPA: 65.00 / %
Admission Requirements: The Bachelor of Music Education is a four-year degree offered jointly by the Faculty of Education and the Faculty of Media, Art, and Performance; its program page states no program-specific admission criteria and links to the university's general Application Guide and undergraduate calendar. Both faculties share the same Fall 2027 early-conditional average of 65% across four high-school courses (English Language Arts plus three further approved courses). International undergraduate applicants pay a $100 CAD application fee and, unless exempt, must show English proficiency of IELTS Academic 6.5 overall with no band below 6.0, TOEFL iBT 83 (overall 4.5 on the revised scale from 21 January 2026), PTE Academic 59, CAEL 60, or Duolingo 120.

Application Details

Application Deadline: Domestic applicants to the University of Regina apply for Fall 2027 entry with a recommended early deadline of 15 March 2027 for best course selection and a final new-applicant deadline of 15 August 2027; Winter 2027-28 entry has an early deadline of 1 November 2026 and a final deadline of 15 December 2026, and Spring/Summer 2027 entry closes 15 April 2027. International (study-permit) applicants share the same final deadlines as domestic students for each term but have no separate early deadline. Numerous named programs, including Nursing, Social Work, Bachelor of Indigenous Social Work, Indigenous Fine Arts and Indigenous Education, carry their own earlier deadlines instead of the general dates. Admission is not described as rolling; late non-competitive applications are simply carried to the next term the program accepts. These are institution-wide dates; this programme publishes no deadline of its own.
