Long abstract | This study captured and compared the variety of health education courses in music higher education in Europe (E) and the Western Balkans (WB). Respondents were asked about the aims of such courses, their design, content, length, teaching staff, target population, and evaluation methods. A 38-item survey was open to school administrators and course leaders for each course completed in, or planned, during the 2016–17 (E) and 2019–20 (WB) academic years, respectively. The data was analysed descriptively. Having been implemented earlier, courses in E tended to be more practical than theoretical, compulsory rather than optional, and designed by more interdisciplinary teams. Courses in WB focused more on psychology than anatomy and hearing health. The variety of courses raises questions about the need for more precise guidelines and a broader definition of health. |
