An audition is required for this concentration. The music industry concentration is the first such undergraduate program in Boston. It is designed for students with an interest in fields such as artist management, the music products industry, the record industry, art administration, contracting and legal issues, the recording process, and studio techniques. Developed in collaboration with Northeastern's College of Business Administration, the music industry concentration leads to a Bachelor of Science degree. Through an exchange program, students may attend classes at the New England Conservatory of Music.
Students also share an array of high-tech and multimedia equipment.
While some music courses are designed for music majors, the department also offers elective survey courses. Several of these courses fulfill the College of Arts and Sciences core curriculum requirement. An extensive concert series offers a variety of performances by students, faculty, and guest artists. Students also have the opportunity to participate in our active choral groups, bands, and chamber ensembles. See course descriptions for more information.
