Course summary

This course is designed to prepare you to work in the exciting and diverse global events industry, ranging from large scale music and cultural festivals, corporate events and exhibitions, to small, bespoke social events. The events industry is big business and vital for economies, communities and individual health and well-being. By studying Event Management, you’ll have the opportunity to learn how to manage events and get the chance to apply theory to practice throughout your course.


Key Course Benefits

Real-world experience - Gain hands-on experience managing live events. Previous students have worked on major music concerts at the National Exhibition Centre (NEC), National Indoor Arena (NIA) and the Ricoh Arena as well as helping to run overseas activities for the British Council. Gain the skills and knowledge necessary for organising successful, memorable and safe events, which means you will also develop a set of highly transferable management skills, particularly in the area of leadership and project management. Learn how to apply business principles, such as financial management, marking theory and strategic management to the solution of event management problems. Industry insight - Access a range of industry visits and field trips, which has previously included visits to the Echo Arena, Cavern Club and St. Georges Hall in Liverpool, and the Aviva Stadium and Croke Park in Dublin. We also invite experts to speak to our students on a regular basis, most notably through our annual Guest Lecture Week, which often welcomes over 30 speakers, many of whom are Coventry University alumni, who are now leaders in their field. Prepare for a future career in event management with a work placement. We currently have links with local, national and international event management companies, such as Eventsforce, Fargo and N200, who have previously provided opportunities for direct work experience, both paid and voluntary.
