Relations between Study and Employment: Music Graduates in Puerto Rico
Latorre, Ileana S.; Lorenzo, Oswaldo
Arts and Humanities in Higher Education: An International Journal of Theory, Research and Practice, v12 n2-3 p161-168 Apr-Jul 2013
Higher education programs in Puerto Rico include undergraduate degrees in music, music education, composition, popular music, jazz and Caribbean music, and, most recently, a master’s degree in music education. However, little is known about what music graduates do after concluding college. Do they work in music-related areas? Are they satisfied with their music preparation and work? The scarcity of research in this topic, along with the singularity of the island’s geographical situation, offers a distinctive opportunity to study graduates from different higher education institutions, in order better to understand the relationship between their achieved academic preparation and their future work. (Contains 2 tables.)
