The Music Ed program at UNC is designed to train students first to be musicians in their own right, then learn how to teach that art form to others. At the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, licensure is granted through a combination of a four-year Bachelor of Music degree (with some specialized coursework in music education related topics) and a Master of Arts in Teaching through the UNC School of Education. For complete information, please click the following link: School of Education. A five year program affords UNC students an opportunity to practice their craft with minimum outside distraction, then work intensively in a music classroom setting in the public schools for an entire school year.
As a music performance major, you are required to choose at least 11 credit hours of elective music classes outside the usual applied studies, theory, history, and large ensembles. The music education track basically determines what those courses will be! The goal here is to take instrumentation/orchestration, conducting, and methods classes. Throughout your ensemble and private lessons experiences, you will be learning to approach music from a teachers' standpoint--understanding musical concepts so you are able to teach them effectively!
