We combine theory with live projects to give you a real taste of what it takes to succeed in music management. The course brings together experts from our music department and management school, and from the creative and cultural industries.

Course description

Taught by the Department of Music and the Management School, this programme allows you to specialise in your areas of interest while gaining insight into the principles and strategies of management across the creative industries.

It's suitable for those looking to launch a management career in the music industry and for music creators wishing to enhance their prospects of success.

As the music industries are rapidly changing, private and public sector organisations are looking for graduates who can bring a high degree of flexibility and critical insight, which are transferable skills that are taught throughout the programme.

Sheffield is a city with a thriving music and cultural scene, so practical work is embedded within the course to allow students to gain skills and an understanding of working for local and national arts organisations.
