PGCert in Music

The Music Teaching Artist Certificate is designed for undergraduate and graduate students studying performance, composition, jazz, arts management, recording technology or the music bachelor's degree. Many of these musicians will eventually teach, and leading a class is a skill worth developing. The certificate involves four classes from the music education sequence: an introductory course, two courses about the foundations of teaching and learning in music, and one elective. Courses that teach instrument or voice technique do not count. Together they add up to eight credits, which can also count as music electives in the other music degrees. Prospective students can review the full requirements and course lists on the program's catalog page at DePaul University. The catalog also lists learning outcomes and the sequence of required courses in detail.
