Experience Music at Immaculata University
When did your love for music first ignite? Perhaps it was a parent strumming a guitar or a music teacher who inspired you to chase your passion. For many aspiring music educators, that spark often arises from a deep desire to share the transformative power of music with others. Whether guiding a younger sibling through their first scales or leading a school band, future music educators cultivate a strong connection to their community, recognizing how music can bridge gaps and inspire change.
As one of the oldest academic programs at Immaculata, the music education program prepares students to become certified music educators in public, private, or religious-affiliated schools from kindergarten through 12th grade.
Being designated an All-Steinway School, Immaculata students have access to Steinway concert grand pianos and numerous Steinway-made practice pianos.

“As a place I called home for four years, IU did not just prepare me for my career as a teacher and musician, but guided me to develop lifelong skills applicable to all my endeavors. My time, involvement and leadership roles on campus, combined with the support of the Immaculata community, made me realize the values of networking, striving for excellence in performance, accountability, taking risks and professional etiquette. My Immaculata education provided me with a solid foundation for my present and future career as a music teacher and created a satisfying preparation for my current studies in graduate school.”
