About This Course Eligibility Criteria Course Modules How To Apply

To maximize an artist’s potential, every job in the music industry needs to work in harmony. By applying a real-world approach and utilizing authentic scenarios, the Music Business curriculum prepares students to become music business professionals working with major record labels, online streaming sites, music publishers, booking agencies, concert promoters, artist management firms, and more.
To be an effective player in music business, it’s not just important to be good at what you do but also to be well versed in the many different roles within the industry.
For example, a band’s publicist may not need to book a tour, but being aware of how and why that tour is routed a certain way is invaluable knowledge when it comes to forming a media strategy.
By teaching you about the many different roles in the business, the Music Business curriculum allows you to not only focus on what you do best but also to ensure that your contributions to the big picture are as effective as possible.
You will learn these roles through courses in music-specific business subjects such as artist management, music copyright and publishing, concert management and touring, and music evaluation for artists and repertoire, as well as general business concepts such as finance, leadership, and marketing. In addition to business-specific topics, you will also have courses focusing on communication skills, physical science, professional writing, and how to prepare for a career in the music industry.
