DEGREES OFFERED

Minor in Music

Master of Business Administration in Music Business


Music plays a large role in the lives of many SNHU students, whether they have chosen to major or minor in a music-related field or not. At SNHU, music is more than a program of study. It's a creative outlet-a way for students to explore their passion and create something beautiful. It's a way for students to come together and share their love of rock, jazz, orchestral music, acapella pieces, and more. It's also a way for students to connect with the community at large, as even non-SNHU students gather on campus to play with musicians both young and old. You'll find no shortage of musical outlets here. SNHU offers an MBA in Music Business in partnership with Boston's famous Berklee College of Music. There is even a Music minor for those students who aren't ready to give up music, despite majoring in other fields.
