This will ensure that you are prepared to manage for the film, television, software, music and other industries.

    Course Outline

    This degree program is typically delivered over 3 years at full time.

    Year 1

    In your first year you’ll take 4 core modules as well as up to two elective modules totalling 30 credits from other approved lists. You’ll learn about how the arts are funded, and begin exploring ‘art culture’ globally.

    • Arts in London
    • Fundraising in the Arts
    • Introduction to Arts and Cultural Theory
    • Visual Culture

    Year 2

    • Managing Arts Organisations and Cultural Businesses
    • Professional Practice in Arts Organisations and Cultural Businesses

You’ll spend 8-9 hours in individual study for each hour spent in class for your Arts Management content. However, you’ll choose up to six modules delivered by other departments.

These include expertise in copyright law, cultural tourism and diplomacy, audience development and funding systems. Recent graduates of this program have gone on to work with organisations like Samsung, Sadler’s Wells, Tate and the Royal Opera House.

    Successful completion will result in a 3 year BA degree.

    Applicants must typically have earned 3 A Levels at BBB or higher, but other qualifications are also accepted. The full list can be found here.
