For students who have a Bachelor of Music degree in an area other than Music Education, and who are interested in getting both teacher certification and a Master of Music in Music Education degree, The Crane School of Music offers an opportunity to achieve this. Typically this program can be completed in two years plus an additional semester of student teaching.Links
