The MUSIC IN EDUCATION department

Educate, entice and encourage...Music in Education

You want to use music to inspire and encourage children, adolescents and adults as a teacher, educational assistant, special education practitioner, educator or welfare worker. You want to teach them to make music, but also introduce them to a broader cultural environment. As well as challenging people and taking them to a higher level, you enjoy giving them the chance to experience the joy and passion music brings. To do all this, you need to be able to relate to people, know what drives them, how they learn and how to motivate them. You must be able to make connections, spark enthusiasm and let it blossom.

Did you know...

The Music in Education programme of Conservatorium Maastricht has been acclaimed as one of the top degree programmes in the Netherlands and was rated number one - for the fifth time running - within the music sector by Keuzegids Hoger Onderwijs 2019 (Guide to Dutch Higher Education). We are extremely proud of this acheivement!

You are most welcome to one of our Open days or Taster days!
