Course summary

Develop the industry knowledge and entrepreneurial skills required to pursue a successful career in the music industry. Entrepreneurship, professional practice and transferable skills are essential attributes needed to develop and maintain a career in the music industry. The SAE Music Business degree is taught by industry professionals and practitioners with years of experience and close links to the sector. As part of the course, you will benefit from guest lectures, seminars, workshops and have the opportunity to take part in masterclasses with industry experts such as managers and record label executives. This course is designed to offer opportunities and benefits not only to applicants interested in a career in the business areas, but also to creatives and practitioners who create and produce music and may be interested in self-management and distribution. Our project based ‘creative studio’ approach provides a practically focussed approach to your education, through the engagement with authentic assessment activities that reflect industry practises. Many students use their final Major Project as a springboard into industry, creating award-winning projects, establishing their own business or making connections with industry professionals that have led to employment.
