Music Industry Studies
The Music Industry Studies Program has developed an innovative curriculum
designed to prepare students for today’s music industry. As an alternative
to a strictly traditional music degree program, the College of Music offers
two tracks in music industry studies. The bachelor of music degree with
music industry studies emphasis is designed for the performing musician,
while the bachelor of science degree in music industry studies is designed
for the student with limited performing experience. Both degrees combine
a flexible liberal arts curriculum with emphasis in many areas of study
including business administration, legal studies, music, graphic arts,
communications, video production, audio recording, and creative writing,
along with music industry related courses and experiences. A goal of the
program is to prepare well-rounded graduates who are ready to be the leaders
of tomorrow’s music industry.
In addition to the music industry studies majors offered through the College
of Music, students can major in business with an emphasis in music industry
studies through the College of Business Administration or any minor in
music industry studies while participating in any major offered by the
College of Arts & Sciences.
