Joseph L. Rivers, Music and Film Studies

The Bachelor of Arts in arts management curriculum outlined below provides an interdisciplinary program in arts management, business, performing arts and an area of artistic specialization in art, film studies, music, or theatre. The degree prepares students for careers in arts organizations, arts related businesses and graduate study in arts management. Students are also required to complete an arts management internship as a capstone experience to practically apply the concepts and techniques learned in the classroom. Semester internships may be completed locally, regionally, nationally, and/or internationally through special arrangements.

All students complete the following core studies in arts management. Because of the interdisciplinary nature and the number of courses required for the major, students in arts management are required to complete an Advertising Minor or Advertising Certificate .
