At Queen’s University students can pursue studies of music education broadly, whether they plan to become an Ontario College of Teachers certified classroom teacher, lead a church choir, provide piano lessons out of their own studio, or operate a community music school.

The Bachelor of Music/Bachelor of Education Concurrent Degree is one of a kind in the region. Students are accepted based on an audition with Queen’s Music, an experience statement in the Faculty of Education, and their high school marks. The combined program takes 5 years to complete, but once students have finished they have a music degree and an education degree and are ready to be certified by the Ontario College of Teachers for teaching in the elementary and secondary schools. Students accepted into this program are of the highest caliber in musical and teaching potential.
