The University of the West of Scotland will use the star as a "set text" to examine aspects of the music industry.
Winehouse's record company Island has provided lecturers with materials for the course, including original marketing plans.
"Amy Winehouse is a great example of the potential pitfalls in the music industry," course leader Allan Dumbreck told The Times.
"She is recognised as a multi-award-winning great artist, but the by-product of that lifestyle can be stress and illness. We would look at how the industry is often not a supporter of longevity."
Winehouse is currently residing in a private clinic after collapsing from a suspected overdose two weeks ago.
