With your Music major with Music Industry concentration, you can join other Ramapo alumni in gaining employment within the industry at places such as Sony ATV Publishing, 20th Century Fox Film, VH1, Agency Booking, NBC Television, and AEG Live. Graduates have also continued their studies in Master’s programs such as music technology at NYU and music management at William Paterson University.
The Music major begins with foundational studies in three areas: musicianship, music history and culture, and musical technologies and media. With a Music Industry concentration, you’ll enhance your major requirements with courses and experiential activities in business, communications, music management, publishing and copyright, live concert production and promotion, marketing, branding and entrepreneurship.
Due to our close proximity to New York City, there are many opportunities for internships with companies including Z100, MTV, Sony Music Entertainment, Warner Music Group, AMC Records, MAYO Performing Arts Center, SiriusXM Radio and City Winery NYC (a live music venue).
