Berklee is the premier destination for the study of contemporary music and the performing arts. Here, you’ll find yourself surrounded by inspiring colleagues, collaborators, and friends—people who care deeply about their work and each other. We embrace self-discipline for excellence and the empathy, openness, and inquisitiveness that are so essential to promoting creativity. We value individuality, encourage innovation, and celebrate the joy that comes from making, teaching, and supporting music and the arts.
We offer degrees and other programs at our campuses in Boston, New York, and Valencia, Spain, at our Berklee Abu Dhabi Center, and through Berklee Online, the largest worldwide provider of music education. With students and alumni from more than 100 countries and educational partners across the world, we are forging new connections to build a dynamic, diverse, and collaborative global arts community.
At Berklee, you can help shape the future of arts education through your individual work and through collaboration with colleagues across the global institution.
