The Entrepreneurship Center for Music (ECM)—in partnership with the Leeds School of Business—builds on the College of Music’s academic excellence by offering students opportunities to learn more about the business of music and how applied entrepreneurship can expand career versatility. In particular, the Undergraduate Certificate in Music Entrepreneurship prepares students for cross-disciplinary careers in the arts. “The certificate program made me think outside of the box and become a much more well-rounded musician,” says violinist and graduating senior Sophia Thaut. “I really feel that I’ve benefited from this program, and I'm sure I'll use the skills I've learned throughout my music career.” Curtis Sellers, an oboist and fellow graduating senior, agrees: “The certificate program helped me put myself out there and make connections with people I never would have otherwise.” Read on about the apps Thaut and Sellers are working on for their capstone projects.
