Billboard Magazine Lists Bandier Program among Best Music Business Schools for 2018

The Newhouse School’s Bandier Program has been named to Billboard magazine’s 2018 list of the country’s best music business schools.

The Bandier Program combines the study of the business of music, media, marketing and entrepreneurship with hands-on experiences to prepare students for a successful career in the music industry. Established at Syracuse University in 2006, the program moved to the Newhouse School last year.

“Bandier is committed to producing young professionals who aren’t just savvy about the music industry, but are also high-integrity, resilient individuals engaged in their communities and the world at large,” noted program director Bill Werde in an interview with Billboard.

The Bandier Program was made possible through a generous gift from Syracuse University Trustee and Sony/ATV Music Publishing Chairman and CEO Martin Bandier ’62.
