Website https://www.stonybrook.edu/commcms/music/ Application Applications to our programs can be found on our website here: https://www.stonybrook.edu/commcms/music/academics/_graduate/index.php Description of the Department of Music The Department of Music offers programs that normally lead to the Doctor of Philosophy degree in Music History and Theory, in Ethnomusicology, and in Composition. The Department also offers programs that normally lead to the Doctor of Musical Arts degree in Music Performance. Masters Degrees in Music History and Theory, in Ethnomusicology, in Composition, and in Music Performance are also available. Stony Brook’s programs have grown out of an unusual partnership between the academy and the conservatory. The Music Department has a distinguished and well-balanced faculty in the areas of music history, theory, ethnomusicology, composition, and performance. The degree programs are designed to favor interaction among musical disciplines that have traditionally been kept separate. For example, the performance programs at Stony Brook all have an academic component. Graduate courses typically have a healthy mix of students from all areas. A number of courses are team taught by two or more faculty members, examining topics from several disciplinary viewpoints.
  • Doctoral Pathway Frequently Asked Questions

    Doctoral Pathway Frequently Asked Questions

    Doctoral Pathway Frequently Asked Questions What are the different types of doctoral programs in education? Broadly speaking, there are two types of educational doctoral degrees: a Ph.D. (Doctor of Philosophy) and Ed.D. (Doctor of Education). A Ph.D. tends to be more theoretical, while a Ed.D. tends to be more applied. We sometimes refer to a Ph.D. as being an academic doctoral degree, while an Ed.D. degree is called a professional doctoral degree. Ph.D programs almost always have a thesis component as a culminating assignment. Ed.D. degrees usually have either a thesis or a major project as a culminating assignment. People tend to be more familiar with Ph.Ds than Ed.D. degrees, although there are some high profile Ed.D degrees around the world (e.g., Harvard has one). You’ll find that there are lots of university and college professors who have Ed.Ds rather than Ph.Ds. You’ll also find people with Ed.Ds and Ph.Ds working at the Ministry as well as in senior leadership positions at the Board level. Both are prestigious doctoral-level degrees. Why would I want a Ph.D or an Ed.D? If you want to be a university professor, you will need a Ph.D. or Ed.D. Many Ontario Colleges are also preferentially hiring instructors with a Ph.D. or Ed.D. An Ed.D. or Ph.D. might make you a stronger candidate if you want to work at the ministry, or at a school board, or as an educational consultant of some kind.

    MASTER of EDUCATION (M.Ed.) in Curriculum & Instruction with A

    MASTER of EDUCATION (M.Ed.) in Curriculum & Instruction with a Specialization in Elementary Education Overview The School of Education offers a Master of Education (M.Ed.) degree in Curriculum & Instruction which provides certified teachers with advanced coursework to pursue a specialization in elementary education. The program extends teachers’ knowledge beyond initial teacher preparation and/or alternative teacher preparation by focusing on advanced coursework that targets foundations, philosophies, research, content disciplines, pedagogical methods, and materials. Once enrolled, students have five years to complete all requirements for the degree. Program Structure The Master of Education (M.Ed.) degree in Curriculum & Instruction with a Specialization in Elementary Education is a 36 hour program beyond the baccalaureate degree which includes the following required courses: EDCI 7824 – Elementary School Curriculum (3 hours), EDCI 4800 – Teaching in the Multicultural Classroom (3 hours), ELRC 4507 – Computer Technology in Education (3 hours), and 3 hours of research. Beyond required coursework, a total of 12 hours of coursework must be taken in an area of specialization (early childhood, literacy, math, reading, science, social studies, or special education), as well as 6-12 hours of electives. The number of electives, 6-12 hours, depends on whether a student decides to: 1) respond to comprehensive exam questions, 2) complete a final culminating research project, or 3) compose a thesis on a topic related to their area of specialization. DEGREE OPTION TOTALS Degree program option Option hours Total program hours Final Exam option No final exam course 36 Research project option 3 hours EDCI 7475 36 Thesis option 6 hours EDCI 8000 36 Students should meet with their advisor upon acceptance into the degree program to plan a course of study.

In the education field, holding a master’s degree or obtaining an advanced degree is often a common goal among teachers. According to the Wall Street Journal, “Of the 730,635 master’s degrees awarded in U.S. colleges in 2011, about 25% were in education, the second highest percentage of any field, behind only business, according to the federal data.” In a competitive field that is centered on learning, obtaining a master’s degree makes sense for most serious educators. But fitting study into a full-time job and family life can be a challenge. Luckily, with the adoption of online learning and flexible formats coupled with educational grants and loans for teachers, obtaining an advanced degree in education has never been easier. If you are a teacher weighing the pros and cons of advancing your education, use this eBook to examine the many benefits a Master of Education degree can offer. 3 Reason One Career Advancement and Opportunity REASON ONE Career Advancement and Opportunity One of the driving forces behind the obtainment of a Master of Education degree, for most teachers, is career opportunity.
