Bachelor of Arts in Music - Music Education

Minor in Music


We will strive to educate, train and develop students to excel as musicians and educators, as a career and passion. Our professional and supportive ensembles will develop the musicianship in all students, whether seasoned performers or new to their instrument. Our diverse, talented faculty will broaden students’ appreciation of musical styles and genres and give them a sound understanding of the importance of music in society past and present to provide the best possible education at the undergraduate level. Stillman College offers the Bachelor of Arts in Music with certification in Music Education. Did you know that music is the only activity that stimulates both hemispheres of the brain simultaneously? Research also demonstrates that music education improves physical health and cognitive functioning, including information storage, and increases positive social interaction. Your musical training in our department may improve your performance in the general education classes you take as part of the liberal arts curriculum! In order to earn the degree and teaching certification, students majoring in this department will fulfill the College’s general education requirements, the School of Education’s requirements, and major requirements, including a capstone thesis and recital. Also, the Alabama State Department of Education requires students to maintain a minimum GPA of 2.5 to qualify for teacher certification. The Music Education certification, conferred on successful completion of STEP (the Stillman Teacher Education Program) will prepare degree candidates to teach P-12 learners in the public school system. Students will train in pedagogical theory and methods and enjoy an immersive field experience, as they work side-by-side with cooperating teachers in P-12 settings.
