Degree Programme in Music Management (instruction in English)
> General Description

The global music and entertainment industry has emerged as a leading employer in the leisure field. The industry employs an increasingly vast number of practitioners involved in a wide range of managerial and professional activities. Both the industry and the higher education sector have recognized the lack of formal education and training for management and administration positions in music and entertainment, especially in Europe.

The Degree Programme in Music Management was planned as a jointly developed degree in collaboration with three European institutes in the field of music and entertainment management: Jyväskylä University of Applied Sciences in Finland, Buckinghamshire Chilterns University College in the United Kingdom and INHOLLAND University Haarlem in the Netherlands.

The idea is that students begin their studies at one of the three partner institutes and spend their second year abroad at another partner institute. The students return to the home institution to complete their third and fourth years of study.
