Mestrado em Música

Master of Music, M.M. – Statesboro

Degree Requirements : 33 Credit Hours

The Master of Music Degree at Georgia Southern University prepares individuals with a Bachelor’s Degree in Music to hone their musical skills to a higher level, to pursue a post-baccalaureate degree for professional advancement, or to prepare for admission to a doctoral program in music.

The program equips students with advanced artistic and technical skills and an ability to act independently as performers, scholars, teachers, and/or practitioners in one of five specific concentration areas:

Composition, Conducting, Music Education, Music Technology, or Performance .

All graduate students have the opportunity to work closely with distinguished teacher/mentors individually and in small classroom settings. Candidates who have previously earned state certification in music education may upgrade their certificate to a higher level (L-5 in Georgia) by successfully completing the M.M. in any of the five concentration areas.

With more than 27,000 students, approximately 140 different degree programs, and three campuses with a single vision of growing others, Georgia Southern University is already moving and ready for more. The historic brick streets or moss-dripping oak trees may make our picturesque campuses seem pristine, but there’s a lot of roll-up-your-sleeves work going on here. Research is focused on community impact. Teaching is focused on the students. And the students are focused on their future.

Since 1906, the University’s hallmark has been a culture of engagement that bridges theory with practice, extends the learning environment beyond the classroom, and promotes student growth and life success. Central to the University’s mission is the faculty’s dedication to excellence in teaching and the development of a fertile learning environment exemplified by a free exchange of ideas, high academic expectations, and individual responsibility for academic achievement. Faculty, staff, and students embrace core values of collaboration, academic excellence, discovery and innovation, integrity, openness and inclusion, and sustainability.
