Business of Entertainment, Media and Technology (Minor)
Program Description
This cross-school undergraduate minor provides a foundation in the business, theory, and practice of media and entertainment with course work spanning the Stern School of Business, Tisch School of the Arts, and Steinhardt. From producing classes in Tisch, Business of Film at Stern, to artist management at the Clive Davis Institute of Recorded Music, you’ll gain a fascinating entry into these evolving industries.
Minor Declaration
Students can apply for the minor via NYU Albert in the My Academics section of the Student Center.
Program Requirements
The minor requires the completion of 16 credits, of which 8 credits must be taken at Stern and 8 credits must be taken through Tisch and/or Steinhardt. Stern students cannot count a required course from the Business Core or from their concentration toward the minor. Non-Stern students should refer to their home school's policies regarding double counting. Students are required to earn a cumulative minor GPA of at least 2.0 to successfully fulfill minor requirements (e.g. graded coursework, not pass/fail).
Students are highly encouraged to take MKTG-UB 40 Entertainment & Media Industries first because it serves as a foundation class for the study of this minor.
