The Specialist (Joint) program in Music Industry, Business, and Technology is a 4-year, undergraduate Joint program that will allow students to earn an Honours Bachelor of Arts (H.B.A.) degree from the University of Toronto and an Ontario College Certificate in Music Business and Technology from Centennial. The Specialist (Joint) program in Music Industry and Technology aims to provide long-term career preparation by offering practical, career oriented courses in music business and technology, as well as their industry connections, in order to meet the needs of students who seek a combination of broad-based knowledge that can adapt to the rapidly changing landscape of music, business, and technology and career ready skills.
The program requires 15.5 credits, of which 7.5 credits are taught at UTSC and 8.0 credits are taught at Centennial. The program takes four years (including one spring internship) to complete. In addition to attaining an Honours BA from UTSC, students will also qualify for the Ontario College Certificate in Music Business and Technology. Students will be able to choose from two possible Certificate options, depending on their course selections in the program.
- Audio Engineering: this track focusses on audio production; or
- Music Business: this track focuses on management, marketing, publishing, and licensing. Students must choose either the Audio Engineering or Music Business track in Year 2 of the program. They will be required to submit their track preference to ACM Program Manager before transitioning to Centennial College.
Courses in this Specialist (Joint) program are taught at the UTSC campus, the Centennial College Story Arts Centre campus (located at 951 Carlaw Ave., in East York), and the Centennial Performing Arts Centre (located at 2200 Eglinton Ave, East., in Scarborough). Students will begin the program by taking courses on the UTSC campus, then spend three consecutive sessions at Centennial College – Winter of Year 2, and Year 3 (Fall, and Winter) – followed by a required internship in Winter (March-April) of Year 3. Students complete the program by taking courses on the UTSC campus.
