Introduction

The Bachelor of Arts in Music Pre-Certification prepares students for a career in K-12 Music Education. This program, offered in collaboration with the Department of Music and Performing Arts and the Department of Education, leads to the Master in Teaching Degree, a fifth-year program in Education. The University conforms to the accreditation.

The licensure requirements for the Master’s in Teaching (MT) include: completing the required courses, earning the state’s passing score on the Praxis II Examination in Music Content Knowledge, earning the state’s passing score on the Virginia Communication and Literacy Assessment (VCLA), and completing an internship, which is a twelve-week student teaching experience.

Praxis Examinations for Bachelor of Arts in Music (Pre-Certification) Majors

All Bachelor of Arts in Music (Pre-Certification) Majors must pass Praxis I during the sophomore year and Praxis II during the senior year. The Praxis tests are required for teacher certification and for admission in the School of Education (Praxis I) and student teaching (Praxis II). The GRE (Graduate Record Examination) is also a Graduate School admission requirement.

Study Abroad Opportunities

The Department of Music and Performing Arts has a history of travel abroad beginning in the early 1900s. Under the direction of Robert Nathaniel Dett, who served at Hampton from 1913 to 1932 and is credited with establishing the Department of Music and Performing Arts and was the director of the University Choir, students from the department traveled and performed extensively throughout Europe. More recently, the Marching Band was a guest performer in Tegucigalpa, Honduras. The University Choir was a guest performer in Medellin, Colombia. The Department of Music and Performing Arts responds to travel abroad opportunities that provide growth and exposure for our students.

Most recently, The Marching Force has performed at the Vatican in Rome, Italy for the 2021 New Year’s Day Parade. The Marching Force has also performed in the 2020 Honda Battle of the Bands in Atlanta, GA, and the Macy’s Thanks Giving Day Parade in 2021! The Force plans to expand its international travels as it looks towards France and England.
