“How I act, how I negotiate, how I talk, what I look for in people. Literally how I live is what I’ve got out of this course,” says 21 year old music business degree student Louis Papantos (as pictured), a Bachelor of Applied Business in Music Industry student. “I’ve always had a passion for music and also a passion for business. The two combined perfectly in this course – and although I looked at options, Box Hill was the place to come to. Louis is one of the many Box Hill graduates who has gained essential skills including participating in complex music industry negotiations, and learnt how to generate publicity, manage public relations, as well as artist management and directing a record label. “Last year, with classmates, we worked on a project which has morphed into a real business. We put together a record label with a community of artists and it’s taken off. We never expected it. It was never our goal. We just love what we’re doing. Music is more than a career choice for me. It’s my life. The teachers have got me here. All my knowledge has come from Box Hill. Essentially I’m a walking product of my course.” Louis has learnt well from studying at Box Hill and most importantly acted on it. You can act on your passion for music now – with a number of mid-year entry music options at Box Hill. For example: The Certificate IV in Music starts in July and is delivered between the Box Hill and CBD campuses with industry experts.
