The Bachelor of Education in Music (B.Ed. Music) is an integrated four-year 152-credit program of initial teacher training that leads to certification as a teacher in the Province of Quebec. This program is only open to students who have completed a Bachelor of Music (B.Mus.) or its equivalent, and normally students receive significant advanced standing in the program such that the B.Ed. Music program can be completed in two and a half years. Students who do not have an equivalent B.Mus. should complete the concurrent Bachelor of Music (B.Mus.) -Major Music Education and Bachelor of Education (B.Ed.) - Music Elementary and Secondary if they are interested in obtaining a music education degree. The concurrent program comprised of 170 credits, and combines academic studies in music, professional studies and field experience. Students normally take five years to complete the concurrent program. The two degrees are awarded during the same convocation period.

The components of the 170-credit Bachelor of Music (Major in Music Education)/Bachelor of Education (Music Elementary and Secondary) are as follows:

• 58 Education credits
• 90 Music credits
• 14 elective credits (which must include 6 credits of non-Music electives)

Students in the concurrent B.Mus./B.Ed. who receive an F or J in any Field Experience course are placed in Unsatisfactory Standing. Although they may complete their term, they are required to withdraw from the Concurrent program; however, they may apply to transfer to the B.Mus. Faculty program.
