Music Education (Stream), Bachelor of Music / Master of
Teaching
Overview
The Combined Degree Program (CDP): Bachelor of Music, Music, Stream in Music Education / Master of Teaching
leads to teaching certification in Ontario. Students in the Bachelor of Music program’s Music Education stream who are
interested in pursuing a teaching career have the opportunity to gain early, conditional admission to the Master of
Teaching program.
Students earn a bachelor’s degree and an accredited professional Master of Teaching (MT) degree, and will be
recommended to the Ontario College of Teachers for an Ontario Teacher’s Certificate of Qualifications as elementary or
secondary school teachers. Distinct advantages include:
• early application to the MT program (in Year 3) and conditional admission to the MT program;
• eligibility for certification as a teacher in Ontario; and
• eligibility to apply for doctoral study.
For a general description of CDPs, see General Regulations section 1.5.3.
