Integrate Music and Health

The Music and Health in Integrative Care micro-credential is designed for graduate students currently enrolled in a healthcare program at Duquesne University. This 9-credit online program runs asynchronously to accommodate the schedule of the full-time student and working professional and can be completed in two semesters. For music therapists who plan to pursue graduate training, the Music & Health micro-credential can provide a smooth pathway for admission and advanced standing credit toward the Master of Music Therapy. 

Courses will provide:

• Knowledge and skill development that can be directly and immediately applied into practice.
• Opportunities for interdisciplinary collaboration in learning spaces that reflect the diversity of practice, philosophy, and approach of an interdisciplinary treatment team.
• Experiential and didactic instruction about music’s healing properties in a broad range of community and treatment settings.
• A deep understanding of the role that culture and context plays in how individuals conceptualize and engage with music.
