Descriptions
The Degree Programme in Music includes two bachelor's degrees: Music Educator and Musician. In the Music Educator's Degree there are two professional majors: Instrument and Vocal Teaching, and Early Childhood Music Education and Community Music. In the Musician's Degree there are two professional majors as well: Performance, and Music Writing and Production.
Instrument and vocal instructors get qualifications to work as teachers in diverse pedagogical tasks in the field of music, such as private and group tuition in an instrument, leading bands, and teaching music theory. Early childhood music educators get extensive qualifications for elementary music teaching of all stages of the life span. Community music skills are in the core of the education. Studies in music education generate vocational teacher qualification.
Instrumentalists and vocalists majoring in performance work as performers in diverse professions in the rhythmic music field, such as orchestral, band, and studio musicians. Music writers and producers master composing, arranging, song-writing, and music technology. They work e.g. in music and multimedia content production, sound design, and music producions.
Because the Music Educator's degree contains 60 pts. ECTS of studies that generate vocational teacher qualification, there is no room in the curricula for a 15 or 30 pt. ECTS study module in a minor subject.
Due to the individual nature of course accomplishments in the field of arts education, all courses in the Degree Programme in Music are assessed pass/fail (excluding Bachelor's Thesis).
Development
Musiikin tutkinto-ohjelman opetussuunnitelman kehittämistyö perustuu Euroopan musiikkikorkeakoulujen liiton (AEC) julkaisemiin, Erasmus/Polifonia-verkoston määrittelemiin kansainvälisiin osaamis- ja kompetenssikuvauksiin sekä Metropolia Ammattikorkeakoulu Oy:n musiikin koulutuksen linjauksiin.
Opetussuunnitelman kehittämiseen em. lähtökohdista ovat osallistuneet pedagogisen henkilökunnan lisäksi opiskelijoiden edustajat sekä ammatillinen neuvottelukunta.
Opetussuunnitelman kehittämistyön jatkamiseksi on olemassa jatkuva, määritelty ja kuvattu prosessi.
Further information
Muutettu opetussuunnitelma. Verrattuna v:n 2021 OPS:aan, yhtään opintojaksoa ei ole poistettu eikä lisätty, Musiikin esittämisen pääaineessa on yksi ajoitusmuutos (Klinikat ja mestarikurssit 4 <–> Valinnainen musiikkiprojekti 2), muita ajoitusmuutoksia ei ole. Kaikissa muissa pääaineissa paitsi Varhaisiän musiikkikasvatus ja taiteen soveltava käyttö on arviointikriteerit korjattu paremmin osaamista kuvaaviksi ja myös osaamistavoitteita ja sisältöjä tarkennettu paremmin todellisuutta vastaaviksi. Tästä syystä näissä pääaineissa (Soiton- ja laulunopetus, Musiikin esittäminen, Musiikin tekeminen ja tuottaminen) on suurin osa opintojaksotunnuksista uusittu. Musiikin tekeminen ja tuottaminen -pääaineen syventävissä opinnoissa on kahden opintojakson nimet muutettu (Musiikin tekeminen toimeksiannoista –> Musiikin ja tekstin tekeminen toimeksiannoista, Tekijänoikeudet, sopimukset ja raportit –> Tekijänoikeus ja musiikkiliiketoiminta).
HUOM. musiikkipedagogin tutkinto sisältää yleisen opettajakelpoisuuden tuottavat 60 op:een laajuiset pedagogiset opinnot, minkä vuoksi musiikipedagogin tutkinto ei sisällä 15 tai 30 op:n laajuisia valinnaisia opintoja.
Objective
Upon graduating as Music Educator the student is proficient in various musical and pedagogical work practices, and is an expert in pedagogical interaction. The student understands the broad potential of music education and can justify this to the learner, to communities and to the society. The student gains competence in reflecting on their own activities, team work, and professional interaction within work communities.
Music Educators possess strong skills in musicianship and pedagogy, which are built from the artistic and technical mastery of their own instrument, as well as diverse pedagogical knowledge. Depending on the major subject, they utilize the potential in applied arts and are able to support learning through various different approaches.
Graduating Musicians master a wide range of different genres and their required expression within the field of popular music and jazz. Depending on the major subject, the focus is on either advanced instrumental and ensemble skills or on the creation, production and technology of music.
