MM in Music Education Online Degree
In 2010, Rutgers Arts Online established a master of music in music education online degree program, which is designed to address the needs of music teachers who already hold teaching certification and who are currently teaching in K-12 school settings. Through this 30-credit online degree program, participants gain a comprehensive understanding of how students learn music through a variety of academic perspectives, including history, philosophy, and psychology. They’ll improve their musicianship and professional capabilities through the study of musical literature used in K-12 as well as music theory and learn to integrate technology into the music curriculum.
