Music Industry Degree

<p>Hello CC!</p>

<p>I am thinking about majoring in Music Industry and Management at the University of Miami. If a lot of your do not know, a degree in Music, particularly music business or management, doesn't guarantee you a job at a record label, distribution center, or any other thing like that. In fact, many of today's music industry executives have no degree or maybe a marketing or puclic relations degree. UM's curriculum has several business courses in which many are geared towards the music industry. In addition, their program requires all students to minor in a business - I have chose marketing and finance. My question is that if I major in Music Industry and don't make it later, can this degree supplement for a job in the business world?</p>

<p>I'm no expert...But couldn't you minor in Music Industry and major in business or finance?</p>

<p>No, i was looking into that but they dont offer a minor.</p>

<p>Your better off contacting someone from the University of Miami just in case... that way you don't do something now that you will regret later. I'm no expert so I would reccommend talking to someone who has probably had this conversation before... Well Good Luck!</p>
