UNDERGRADUATE STUDY PROGRAMME OF MUSIC EDUCATION/PEDAGOGY 

The general outcomes expected from the bachelor of music pedagogy should be recognized in competences (knowledge, skills and capacities) closely related to teaching children and young people, and other fields in which general music education is required (e.g. associates in kindergartens, leaders of music kindergartens, associates in primary and secondary school extra-curricular activities, solfeggio teachers and conductors of choir societies at music courses, leaders of different ensembles within cultural-artistic societies, in tourism, organizers of music performances at festivals, in institutions of art, professional associates at theatres, in libraries and media, record industry, etc.)
