I am wanting to get a music business and production degree online. I have searched for colleges that offer this and have not been able to find that many. Basically I found Berklee and Full Sail University. Berklee has both a music business and music production certificate program as well as an artist management certificate program. They also have courses in music publishing, concert touring, and music industry entrepreneurship as well as other related courses.
Full Sail has a bachelors degree program online for both music management and music production. And, with them it says you can go back and do any of the courses over again or take any courses you may need to in order to keep up with the business for free once you have gotten your degree.
I was considering Full Sail because they offer a bachelors degree instead of a certificate program. But, I heard on another message board from several people who went to Full Sail or know people who went there that it is really hard to get a job after you get the degree. So, that makes me think that maybe Berklee is a better choice. But, I’m wondering if it would be hard to get a job once you complete the certificate program with them since it’s not a bachelors degree and just a certificate.
Any thoughts or experience with this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
