Overview

The Music Therapy program at Georgia College provides the interdisciplinary and clinical training necessary to meet the diverse emotional, social, cognitive, and physical needs of individuals throughout the lifespan.

As an established allied health profession, music therapists work in a variety of settings including private practices, hospitals, hospices, schools, and other facilities.

Graduates of this program are eligible to sit for the Certification Board of Music Therapists (CBMT) exam. Upon passing the exam, graduates earn the MT-BC (music therapist - board certified) credential and are then eligible to apply to practice as a licensed professional music therapist (LPMT).
