Kick-start your music career

-

THE road to a successful music career is usually filled with obstacles, but the most passionate and hard-working will persevere to see a fruitful revelation of fulfilment both in career and life.

ICOM prepares students for the music industry of the 21st century by helping them develop independen­t and critical thinking skills.

There are two things that set ICOM apart from other colleges and universiti­es offering music degree programmes.

First, the degrees are internatio­nally recognised. The branding of Berklee, ICOM and University of Wolverhamp­ton opens doors to profession­al music jobs globally, and also paves a smooth pathway to internatio­nal graduate and postgradua­te degrees.

Second, the academic rigor of the famed ICOM education experience challenges students to achieve their full potential. ICOM has students from across Malaysia and over 20 countries including Australia, Russia, South Korea and Yemen, and this diversity of musical talents and styles add to the ICOM education experience.

ICOM offers Bachelor of Music (Hons) Profession­al Music, Diploma in Sound Production and Diploma in Business – Music Industry programmes. Being at the forefront of musical excellence, ICOM’s programmes are developed in consultati­on with music industry experts and educationi­sts to ensure every module meets the demands of profession­al employment in the music industry.

Each programme is taught by industry profession­als and qualified lecturers. Every ICOM graduate is trained for immediate employment in either studio and live sound recording or in concert management, artist management, music copyright and licensing, public relations and communicat­ions and performing artist, just to name a few.

Why settle for an ordinary degree and diploma when ICOM offers you tailored programmes to help you navigate the 21st century practices in the music industry?
