Additional Requirements: Diagnostic Examination: The Diagnostic Examination in Voice, Piano, and Guitar is required for all students entering the master’s degree program in Music Therapy. The examination covers two broad areas of competence:
For the examination, students bring a list of at least 12 songs that they are prepared to sing and play. The examiners then select one or more songs to be sung and played on the piano, and one or more to be sung and played on the guitar. In the next portion of the examination, students are asked to sight-sing and sight-harmonize tunes from a fake book, using piano and guitar as accompaniments.
Any student who has not studied voice, piano and/or guitar, or who is not prepared to play popular music or use a fake book, may waive any or all portions of the examination and opt to take the appropriate remedial course(s). This is not unusual. Most students entering the program need instruction or practice in one or more of these areas. Therefore, students are encouraged to view this as merely a placement examination. Depending on each student’s background and competence, as demonstrated on the examination, students may be placed in the following remedial courses for 1 credit each:

Credits earned in required remedial courses do not apply toward the master’s degree.
NOTE: All students must present themselves for the Diagnostic Examination at the designated time. Students who wish to waive any portion of the examination by taking the remedial courses are still required to present themselves for the scheduled Diagnostic Examination, unless they send written notification to the Music Therapy faculty stating their intent to waive all portions of the exam. When students waive all portions of the exam, they are required to take all remedial coursework without any further opportunity for taking or retaking the examination.
Clinical Experience: Ongoing clinical experience is required.
Tuition and Fee Payments: All tuition and fees must be paid according to the deadlines given by the Bursar's Office at the time of registration. This means that all payments must be received prior to the first day of the term in which the course is offered—not prior to the first day of the course, which in Music Therapy may be very late in the term. When payments are not received by the University deadlines for each term, registrations are automatically canceled, and late fees are imposed for reregistering. Often students do not receive written notification of this until well into the term. Students are encouraged to be punctual in meeting all registration deadlines, as failure to do so is very costly in time, effort and money.
Professional Development Policy: In addition to taking the required subjects for their degrees, all students in the Boyer College of Music and Dance are obligated to serve in a number of capacities in order to enrich their academic and musical expertise. Boyer College of Music and Dance believes that such experiences give impetus to successful professional careers. Among the duties that may be required are conducting laboratory classes; tutoring; teaching private lessons; coaching; participating in the distribution and inventory control of Temple University-owned musical instruments and instructional materials; participating in ensembles; accompanying; performing at admissions and open house events; supervising performance classes; and engaging in other academic activities.
Independent Study Courses: Independent study courses provide a special opportunity for graduate students to work in a highly individualized setting with one or more faculty members. All such study must receive the approval of the faculty member providing the instruction, the students' major advisor, and the Associate Dean. Approval is granted only after the student has presented a detailed description of the intended independent study project. Approval of independent study projects is granted only for students whose academic and musical record provides substantial support for the benefits of this type of study. In no case may more than 20% of a graduate student's curriculum be taken as independent study. Private lessons beyond those required in the curriculum are not an appropriate form of independent study.
Acceptable English: All students, including those for whom English is not the native language, are expected to present all written work in acceptable English. No double standard exists to differentiate students on the basis of proficiency in the use of the English language. Students are also responsible for becoming familiar with the College's statement on plagiarism and academic honesty.
Applied Music Study:
Incompletes: All incomplete grades must be fulfilled within one year.
Culminating Events: Comprehensive Examination: Upon completion of the final projects and with permission of the Program Coordinator, the student may request permission to take the written qualifying examination. Students should contact the Program Coordinator regarding administration dates of the comprehensive examination.
The written qualifying examination in Music Therapy does not limit its scope to the coursework taken at Boyer College of Music and Dance. Instead, the student is expected to study comprehensively in preparation for this examination. The written qualifying examination in Music Therapy covers:
Final Project: As part of the Music Therapy curriculum, students undertake a final project that encompasses a pilot research study.

Music Therapy is the application of music for rehabilitation of brain function and development and maintenance of mental and physical health. The qualified music therapist creates therapeutic music exercises to facilitate functional non-musical outcomes, training and retraining abilities in cognition, speech and language, motor control, academic performance, emotional growth, and social skills. There is strong scientific evidence that music is a powerful tool in therapy, engaging and changing the brain, and promoting behavioral learning and change.
Colorado State University has a long tradition in clinical education, research, and scholarship in music therapy. With an outstanding music program and an academic focus on evidence-based practice, graduates from Colorado State University learn necessary tools to be an integral member of a treatment team or pursue a career in private practice. Students also have the opportunity to gain experience on a biomedical or clinical research team.
In addition to the clinical core, music therapy majors take a wide variety of courses in music theory, music history, music performance, and coursework emphasizing the research aspects of music therapy. In addition, the program requires courses in psychology, neuroscience, and medical terminology. A total of 120 credits are required for the degree. Successful completion of all curricular requirements, plus a six month clinical internship, qualifies a graduate to sit for the National Board Certification Examination.
All degree programs are approved by the American Music Therapy Association .

User straps device to ankle to communicate with partner through heel taps.
A PhD student in Ottawa has developed a device that allows blind and low-vision students to feel music cues, replacing the need to see them.
Instead of having to follow a conductor's baton, or a teacher's hand gestures during a lesson, music learners can receive instruction through a vibration in their right leg sent by the Tap-Tap device.
Leon Lu, the information technology PhD student at Carleton University behind the idea, says the wearable device is easy to use and cheap to make.
Two people wear paired devices around their right ankles. Then, by tapping their heels together in different patterns, they can send messages to each other.
"Imagine, kind of like a Morse code, but vibration," Lu told As It Happens host Nil Köksal. "What's really cool about that is that you can get real-time communication happening through discreet methods."
"The student can continue playing and they don't have to stop and actually discuss [the instruction], but they can still be in that moment and in flow."
The Tap-Tap device doesn't come with a set communication code or language. That language is set by the participants, which Lu says is both a limitation and advantage of the device.
Piano teacher Nora Bartosik echoes that.
Bartosik is a faculty member at Manhattan's Filomen M. D'Agostino Greenberg Music School, a school for blind and low-vision students, which teamed up with Lu to test the prototype and provide his team with weekly feedback about the device.
She used the Tap-Tap device with one of her piano students for about two months earlier this year and says there was a learning curve.
"It kind of feels like a phone buzz," said Bartosik. "Actually, a little bit stronger."
"[My student and I] decided to focus on the things that I've been saying a lot in lessons.... We decided we would use the buzz to indicate that I wanted him to play quieter in certain sections."
As they got used to the device, they added more signals.
"Two buzzes might mean like get louder, you know, do a crescendo," she explained. "One long buzz would mean this or one short buzz would mean that. We kind of expanded the vocabulary as we went along."
Chase Crispin, a blind musician and teacher in Lincoln, Neb., who consulted on the Tap-Tap project, said in a written statement from Carleton University, that "many people don't realize how much a musician is managing at once: posture, notes, rhythms, dynamics — the list goes on. For blind music learners, who memorize most of this, it adds even more layers."
Crispin said getting involved with the study was a way to "blend my own interest in technology with the needs I had as a blind musician."
Lu, who sings, plays guitar and is learning violin, said his passion for music and desire to be creative was part of the reason he took up this project.
He's surprised that a device similar to the Tap-Tap isn't already integrated into commercially-available devices, such as a smartwatch, and hopes that might be a possibility in the future.
