Welcome to Music Business

At Western Illinois University, our music business program has been helping students create their career and professional identity since 1986. Technology and our culture affect how we create, consume, discover and distribute music all of the time.

We are proud to be accredited by NASM (National Association of Schools of Music), partner institution with NAMM (National Association of Music Merchants), and Educational Institution Member of MEIEA, (Music and Entertainment Industry Educators Association).
