BA in Music Education Instrumental

4 Years On Campus Bachelors Program

University of Maryland Baltimore County

Program Overview

Rooted in the belief that we learn the most through hands-on experience, UMBC instrumental music education majors gain six semesters of classroom teaching, including a weekly service-learning internship during their 1st and 2nd years in the program. UMBC music educators work with students at local schools, which includes time in the Baltimore Symphony s OrchKids program. The real-world work experience allows UMBC students to positively contribute to the community while taking on opportunities such as side-by-side rehearsal with Baltimore Symphony members and clinics with major guest artists like Tony award winner Brian Stokes Mitchell. In their final year, aspiring music educators are placed in an area school; the year begins with observation and gradually expands to a full-time teaching internship.
