If you’re a music industry professional who wants a high-level qualification that’s designed to drive you forward to the next stage of your career, this is the master’s degree for you. The MA Music Business course at WaterBear can fast-track your professional career in just one year. Your own projects underpin the course to offer a deeper level of personal and professional development.

This comprehensive postgraduate qualification will help you become an adaptive thinker, creator and entrepreneur within a music industry that shapes the zeitgeist of contemporary culture. It is built on three fundamental elements – your past, your present and the bridge to your future. It’s flexible, innovative and the degree course is designed to fit around your life.

This MA has a work-based learning approach. This means you don't necessarily need an undergraduate degree to enrol, if you have the right amount of professional experience.

Whatever your reasons for wanting to study, gaining the MA can give you more professional choices, more potential income streams and those all-important letters after your name.

The course is constructed to focus on three fundamental elements:

• Your Past Reflect upon and document your experience and knowledge.

• Your Present Define and hone your skills, to sharpen your commercial edge.

• The Bridge to Your Future Become a recognised expert in your field.

This course is for music industry professionals who want to develop the commercial and entrepreneurial side of their careers. You may be looking to upskill in areas like digital marketing, social media and other aspects of the modern music professional's life. Or simply feel the need to gain a high-level qualification and be a recognised expert in your field.

The course will take you on a journey of critical reflection, development of professional practice through mentoring, culminating in the completion of a major commercial project. Areas of focus include in-depth analysis of the music industry, development of personal skills and the realisation of ideas through submission of a major project.

You will develop autonomy whilst learning to apply critical thinking and research skills to your work. You'll gain academic proficiency and professional credibility. You'll also develop your entrepreneurialism to maximise areas of potential revenue and enterprise.

It’s awarded by one of the UK’s leading specialist universities for the creative industries, Falmouth University.
