Jerald Washington, Master of Arts in Music Industry graduate

Today’s fast-changing, multi-billion dollar international music and entertainment industry has more record labels, publishers, media companies, distributors, retailers, and product manufacturers actively promoting the sale and use of music than ever before. As the market for music shifts away from physical products and traditional methods to digital online and mobile, a greater number of competent, highly-skilled executives and entrepreneurs will be needed to meet the specialized demands of the new music industry.

Since 1964, the Master of Arts in Music Industry program has been at the forefront of music business education. The program has been carefully designed to prepare qualified music business students for these emerging opportunities.

Whatever your aspirations are, the faculty is available to provide a broad range of relevant knowledge and skills in live music promotion, music publishing and licensing, and legal aspects of the live entertainment industry.
