Bachelor of Music - Music Education

Level 1 Licensure in Music, K–12, in New Mexico allows one to teach any music class at any level of instruction. Where two or more music educators are employed by a single school district, however, a division of responsibilities between instrumental music and vocal/general music commonly exists. The Department of Music, therefore, offers two planned programs in music education, an Instrumental Concentration and a Vocal Concentration. The Instrumental Concentration includes emphases in strings, winds, percussion, piano or guitar, while the Vocal Concentration includes emphases in piano, voice or guitar.
