Public School Licensure

Teacher licensure at the University of Oregon requires a bachelor's degree in music education and completion of a fifth-year teacher education program. This intense five-term program—summer through summer—combines an academic year of clinical experience in the public schools with supporting course work at the university. During the fall and winter terms, students spend increasing amounts of time in public school settings; in the spring term they are full-time student teachers. Summer sessions are spent on course work that supports and builds on the activities and experiences of a year's contact with public school students.

To be considered for admission to the program an individual must submit evidence of the following to the School of Music and Dance Graduate Office:
  1. a baccalaureate degree from an accredited college or university with a major or its equivalent in music education.
  2. a minimum cumulative 3.00 GPA on previous college work or the last 45 quarter hours of work. In addition to the above, successful completion of select qualifying examinations is required.
