The University of North Texas is proud to host the Second Biennial
North Texas Symposium for Research in Music Education. The purpose of this symposium is to allow Music Education Graduate Students a venue in which to present research, either in initial phases, ongoing phases, or in final phases; to collaborate with graduate students from universities across the country; to establish a working support network with fellow graduate students; and to receive guidance from scholars in the field of Music Education.
Keynote speakers will be Robert Cutietta and Hildegard Froehlich.
The University of North Texas invites graduate students (Masters and
Ph.D.) nationwide to submit proposals of ongoing or completed research reports for review and consideration to be presented either in a Research Poster Session, a Research Paper Presentation Session, or a Roundtable
Discussion Session. This research should not have been previously presented.
