The music you listen to, the artists you discover, the gigs and festivals you just have to attend - these wouldn’t exist without an industry working behind the scenes to develop, market, organise and create the experiences we all love.

If this is your passion, there is an industry for you! Work as an artist manager, tour manager, festival organiser, booking agent, publicist or venue manager. Work at a record label in A&R, marketing or publicity, or start your own record label. Do you want to be a music supervisor or publisher placing songs on TV shows, advertising or film?

The music business program is perfect for emerging music professionals that want to make a career in music business and entertainment.

Students will be taught and mentored by music professionals in an environment that supports and encourages them to achieve industry-ready skills, so they graduate ready to thrive. This is done by integrating real-life experiences in a supportive atmosphere. This fusion of education and industry is reflected in our teachers who, as well as teaching, currently work for or run publishing companies, record labels, touring companies, music festivals, booking agencies, entertainment law, public relations and social media companies.

Music business students work closely with music performance, production, and composition students, as well as having access to graphic design and fashion students to create cross-discipline projects in an exciting and talent-rich environment.
