Music Therapy As a Career

2/15/2018

 
On Wednesday Feb 14th, Roy Joyner had the opportunity to present on “Music Therapy as a Career” to over thirty undergraduate music majors at Clayton State College and University. Many students were interested in this topic and wanted information on graduate programs with music therapy.  Other topics addressed were:

  1. The time line for becoming a music therapist, and what kind of course work was required.
  2. Information about degree programs both in and outside the state of GA. 
  3. Equivalency vs  Masters degree, and what kind of internships are available.
  4. A snapshot of the day in the life of a school music therapist.

Roy said the highlight of the day was getting to spend time with one of his mentors, Dr. Richard Bell.  He was Roy's first String Bass instructor and was instrumental in introducing Roy to the field of music therapy. While visiting, Roy was able to sit on some of Dr. Bell's education classes while he was helping students with writing objectives. Roy felt honored to be introduced as one Dr. Bell's former students. Dr. Bell has had a long and distinguish career and continues to influence the lives of his former and present students.
