Department Of Music Education

I am Berfin Türker, a senior undergraduate student at Pamukkale University, Faculty of Education, Department of Music Education. The main purpose of our department is to train music educators who will teach music; qualified, creative, expert educators who use their main instruments and voices very well. We have courses such as Ear and Sight Reading Education, Piano Education, Choir Education and Voice Education. In addition to this, courses related to our periodical field are also offered. We also have training courses during the undergraduate period. In our department, besides the courses where our collective classes are taught, there are courses where the instructors have their own classrooms for individual classes. We have individual study rooms and lockers where everyone can work and use individually. In the department, there is an internship program that lasts for two semesters in the 4th year of the undergraduate program. We get to be interns in 2 different schools each semester. After graduating, individuals can continue to teach with pedagogical formation, also they can apply to State Choir Orchestras. The reason why I chose the Department of Music Education is that I have been involved with music since my childhood. That's why I believe I can reach many people with music. The reason why I chose Pamukkale University is that I thought it would make a great contribution to my career with its activities in the field of music and its strong academic staff. Department of Music Education students benefit most from the advantage of having individual study rooms. My post-graduation goal is to pursue a professional piano career and complete my master's degree. The people who will choose this department must be interested in music and art and do this job with real love. If you want to get involved with art, entertainment, and cultural activities throughout your university life, you should attend Pamukkale University. I wish success to the candidates who will enter the university exam.
