In today鈥檚 music industry, many artists find that they have to diversify their sources of income in order to make a living 鈥� some may teach, repair instruments or work in music media.

In addition to these classes, students at Schulich have an extra chance to build journalism skills, as the institution has a long-running association with which allows students to work for credit with the CBC Montreal music department. Over the course of a year, the selected intern will have the chance to build on their strengths in media and journalism as well as be exposed to new areas in the field they may not be familiar with.

During my time as intern, I published work online for and , had the unexpected opportunity to interview Diana Krall, and watched the production of an episode of 鈥榪鈥� in Toronto. My experience changed the way I view the media landscape and arts scene in Canada, and the internship was an invaluable networking opportunity. For anyone interested in music journalism and production, it's the best bootcamp you could ask for.鈥�
