Qualification Requirements
The following prerequisites apply for application to the MUED program:
An earned Master's degree.
A record of at least three (3) years of full-time, successful teaching experience in group instructional settings. It is highly recommended that this experience be gained at the public school level of instruction. Private studio teaching alone may not suffice as a substitution for group instructional activities. The appropriateness of a candidate's teaching experiences will be evaluated by the Music Education Graduate Faculty.
Applicants to the MUED graduate program must submit a completed College of Music online application form and must upload supporting materials to the online application. Supporting materials must include:
A current r'sum or vita
A writing sample demonstrating academic writing (e.g., a Master's paper, project, etc.)
A personal philosophy statement that addresses teaching, music, and long-range professional goals
Three (3) letters of recommendation from three (3) individuals qualified to evaluate the applicant's accomplishments and merits. These will be submitted using the online form included on the College of Music application.
A teaching video that highlights classroom instructional episodes, such as rehearsals, warm-ups, or other activities. These are especially important for students who are applying for TA/TF positions.
After a review of your materials, the Music Education Division will invite you to a full-day interview to meet with faculty members and current doctoral students. Ph.D. applicant interviews will take place on January 31, 2020. If circumstances require an applicant to interview on a different date, the Ph.D. Program Coordinator will work with the applicant to find a suitable alternative.
