Summary

This MA will enable you to develop an awareness of and a critical approach to the discipline of arts administration and cultural policy, by studying trending issues in cultural policy and art practice in Europe, Asia and wider international contexts.

  • On this Masters from the Institute for Creative and Cultural Entrepreneurship you will study audience development and engagement, fundraising, arts education, cultural tourism, regeneration through arts, arts diversity and social inclusion, copyright and the role of the arts in international relations and diplomacy, as well as connections with local, national and supranational cultural identities.

The programme will also draw on relationships with creative organisations across the UK, particularly in Manchester, Bristol and Brighton. Some of the best practitioners from a number of companies, venues and key arts organisations in Europe and beyond teach on the programme, providing you with a direct link with the arts and wider creative industries profession.

Please note that a placement with any specific arts organisation is not guaranteed. However, we take you through a supportive process to connect you with an appropriate arts organisation.
