Course Descriptions

You may view the entire YSU course schedule and Undergraduate Bulletin in Acrobat format: YSU Course Schedules.

Curriculums may be divided into five components: music education, music history, music theory, performance; and liberal arts. In cooperation with the College of Education, the Music Education department prepares students for certification as music teachers in the public schools and also provides other courses necessary for general elementary teaching certificates. Music education students have a variety of opportunities for observation and practice teaching through excellent cooperation between the University and all area schools.
