Music educators train the musicians of tomorrow. Our Music Education students are immersed in the Sydney Conservatorium of Music's melting pot of performance, composition and teaching. While preparing to become accredited classroom teachers, our music education students undertake a principal study in performance (jazz or classical), musicology or composition.

The Bachelor of Music (Music Education) will develop your teaching skills through studies in education, music education, choral and instrumental pedagogy and music technology. Our professionally recognised program (with NSW Department of Education and Training accreditation) will prepare you for a career as a music teacher in both the primary and secondary school environment. You choose a study focus in performance, composition or musicology and specific music education and pedagogical training. In addition to your studies in music teaching methods, music history and analysis, performance and compositional skills, you will attain information and communication technology competencies and develop an understanding of children with special educational needs.

You will complete practical teaching experience in schools and in your fourth year undertake extended professional experience sessions supported by both high school teachers and experienced music education lecturers from the Conservatorium.
