Music Business?

<p>Is there a music business major at UPenn? If not, what majors or depts. could be looked at for a good background in both business and music? Or is UPenn not really suitable for this major…</p>

<p>Wharton has a "create a concentration" segment- I don't know if you'd be able to make one on the music business, because I don't really understand W T F their classes are, but I'd call them and ask.</p>

<p>(Seriously? w t f is censored?)</p>

<p>You can do an individualized concentration, Marketing, or Marketing & Communications. There's an 03 Wharton grad who is a Product Manager for Bad Boy Entertainment and their CFO is also a Wharton Alum. The CEO of Motown is a Wharton alum. The VP and CEO of Warner Music Group is a Wharton alum.</p>

<p>So Wharton alums do and can go into that. And it helps to have alumni connections in the area.</p>

<p>I'm not sure about other business programs - you may be able to find something that lets you specifically study the entertainment industry.</p>
