An application to the Music Business Certificate Program is required. Any and all majors are welcome to apply on the UGA Music Business website: terry.uga.edu/musicbusiness.

Description of the Program
The purpose of the Music Business program is to develop business leaders for the music industry. By integrating content from a variety of disciplines, the program creates an intellectual synergy beyond what students can achieve in either the current business or music programs separately. Success in the music business requires a broad array of knowledge from a variety of diverse fields. The purpose of the Interdisciplinary Certificate then is to draw together these diverse and distinct areas of content into a coherent curriculum, providing students an opportunity that they otherwise would not have.

The Certificate has a curriculum designed to provide foundation skills, specialized music business content, and electives to build specific competencies. A total of 21 hours of approved coursework is required to complete the Music Business Certificate. The mixture of courses to obtain the Certificate varies according to the student’s major.
