After graduation

After their studies, Arnhem graduates look for a suitable niche in the market for which they have already prepared themselves through their specialisations in the final years of their studies. This ensures less mutual competition or an excessive supply of the same type of graduates. Thanks to the wide range of choice within the study, students know what they have to offer and for which market this is interesting.

Title and diploma

After successfully completing the Jazz & Pop course in Arnhem, you are entitled to use the title of Bachelor of Music (BMus). This course can be found in the Dutch Central Register of Courses in Higher Education (CROHO) under code 34739. The formal name of the course, under which this study is known in CROHO, is Bachelor of Music. This CROHO name will appear on your diploma.

At work as a versatile musician

As a musician you can be part of a band, group, orchestra or perform solo on stages and festivals. You can also use your knowledge and skills as a studio musician. Interdisciplinary professional practice is also an option. Think of performances with visual arts or theatre and dance. We assume that every graduate comes into contact with teaching in one way or another, at music schools, in centres for the arts or in their own teaching practice. Almost all professional musicians combine several of the above activities.

Our alumni include:

• Simin Tander
• Martin Fondse
• Eef van Breen
• Rob de Nijs
• Sonja Glass (BOY)
• Robert Biesewig
