Course summary

The Creative Industries and Arts Organisation MA is designed to give students a critical, strategic and ethical understanding of sustainable business and stakeholder relations in the creative, cultural and arts industries.

With a focus on environmental and labour sustainability, and steeped in critical management studies research, the programme strives to offer students concrete experiences of practitioner, activist, and organiser frameworks for creative labour today.

Prepare for positions of significant responsibility and leadership in creative industries and arts management.

Make contact with creative practitioners through our links to successful arts initiatives including Creative Works London, Live Art Development Agency and Further field.

Tailor your course to your interests by choosing optional modules from across the University.

This programme critically explores how the study of creative industries and the cultural sector is linked to business and society, and applied in organisational practice, using real case studies from around the world.

Building on a network of practitioners, creatives, organisers and strategic collaborators, the course offers a complex view of the often precarious forms of work and organisation that have emerged in the creative sectors, and their relation to social justice and economic and political equality.

Assessment

Group work and its methodology is central to the student learning experience on this programme. Summative assessment uses various methods, ranging from conventional academic coursework, through to shorter specific exercises and analyses of case studies. Formative assessment takes place using class presentations, industrial interactions, peer to peer debates, short written exercises and group work.

Career paths

This programme is ideal for students wishing to enter or further their careers in frontline arts and cultural provision, or creative industry policy settings.

Graduates of this programme have gone on to work at galleries, media production companies and in creative and non-creative roles in a wide range of businesses.
