Music Education Minor
Required credits for this minor: 27-34
Mayville State University had a long tradition in the area of Music Education until the 1990’s. The North Dakota state Board of Higher Education Approved the Music Education minor on November 4, 2010. North Dakota Education Standards and Practices Board (ESPB) approved the music minor equivalency endorsement for Mayville State University in August, 2013.
This minor has been designed to complement an Elementary Education major, but it could be compatible with such majors as Business Administration, CIS, Fitness and Wellness, and Communication. Students pursuing the Music Education Minor must take EDUC 400A and MUSC 380.
Students completing this minor with a teaching major (such as Elementary Education) can apply to ESPB for a music minor equivalency endorsement. Two types of endorsements are available-music education: Instrumental and Music Education: Composite. It is the students’ responsibility to apply for this endorsement. The endorsement form can be found on the ND ESPB Web site, www.nd.gov/espb.
