UQAM - Université du Québec à Montréal

By choosing to study music at UQAM, you benefit from a team of teachers and professionals recognized and respected by the community, a personalized pedagogical approach and an unrivaled atmosphere in the heart of the Latin Quarter, two steps from the main cultural institutions of Montreal.

The music program offers students a solid musical education while allowing them to develop their talent in one of the following two concentrations: Teaching and Art Practice.

The artistic practice concentration aims to train musicians capable of comprehending their role in complex situations generated by the musical environment and of assuming their own identity in a creative and meaningful relationship with the discipline.

The Teaching concentration aims to train music teachers who meet the skills profile established by the Ministry of Education, Recreation and Sports. Thus, at the end of their program, graduates of the concentration will be able to teach music in preschool-elementary and secondary. To exercise their function, they will obtain, under the recommendation of the University, a teaching certificate from the Ministry.
