Professional field for which the course qualifies
The Bachelor's degree programme in Woodwinds Flute/Clarinet (Muisic Education) prepares students for a wide range of artistic and pedagogical careers. The combination of artistic and pedagogical content opens up professional opportunities, from permanent employment in an educational or artistic institution to the field of freelance singing or vocal pedagogy.
Possible areas of employment include music schools, vocal teaching in general education schools or day-care centres, vocational schools and educational institutions of all kinds. It is also possible, for example, to work in the field of concert pedagogy, where graduates work both as performers and educators.
The high level of vocal pedagogical qualifications, combined with musical-artistic skills and stylistic versatility, gives graduates the opportunity to position themselves individually in the pedagogical and artistic field and to respond flexibly to the needs of the labour market.
