Program details
Overview
The Master in Teaching and Learning (MTL) in Music is an entry-level teaching qualification covering both the Primary and Secondary Area, built on an existing first-cycle degree. You specialise in Pedagogical Content Knowledge, Educational Context Knowledge and Educational Research and Inquiry, each linked to a school-based field placement, with a strand on educational themes and positive learning environments bringing in the wider context of teaching.
Delivered part-time during the day, mainly through taught units with a research component, the course runs over six semesters as a Master's-level qualification (MQF Level 7) worth 120 ECTS credits.
Completing the MTL qualifies you to apply for a teacher's warrant and begin teaching Music, with routes open to further study in education. The qualification suits graduates who already hold a first degree in Music or a related subject and now want to move into classroom teaching.
Requirements
Admission Requirements: UM applies course-specific entry requirements under its regulations and bye-laws. Local applicants are assessed on qualifications such as the Matriculation Certificate, International Baccalaureate, or European Baccalaureate; international applicants hold overseas qualifications evaluated individually for comparability with UM's standards, with no extra requirements beyond the course's own criteria. MATSEC-qualification applicants must apply as soon as they receive their first result slip after the May/June session; students sitting September resits should apply by the course's first deadline rather than waiting on resit results. After evaluation, the Office of the Registrar issues a decision letter. Admission may also be granted via Recognition and Accreditation of Prior Learning (RPL) for undergraduate and taught postgraduate courses.
