Why study Bachelor of Music and Bachelor of Laws?

The entertainment industry creates unique legal and management challenges that require specialised knowledge. This double degree offers two very distinct areas of study that enable you to combine the expertise, skills and knowledge of a Law degree with training in the entertainment and music industries. The Music degree allows a greater specialisation in music performance than the major sequence in music offered by the Bachelor of Arts. It provides an approved combination of units in performance, composition, arranging and musicology and includes options in classical and popular music. Applicants are required to undertake a performance evaluation and an interview.

Course details

Career opportunities

This unique degree combination provides music graduates with a distinct advantage in the entertainment industry and many combine their skills in producing, artist management, entertainment law or arts administration.
