Event Management (Top Up) BA (Hons)

COURSE CONTENT

Ranked 3rd in the UK for personal development on the National Student Survey 2016, the degree has been designed in consultation with event professionals and event organisations to ensure an appropriate balance between the academic context for events and an appreciation of the applied, logistical, business and operational elements of event management.

You will learn from and plan events with event managers who have staged events all over the world; from Hong Kong to Sydney, from Barbados to the USA to the UK.

The event management degree route draws on the skills and expertise of our teaching staff who come from a range of disciplines and includes modules in the areas of business management, project management, hospitality, sponsorship, public relations, multi-media marketing and mega-events.

The programme takes advantage of the enviable opportunities presented by the scale, wealth and diversity of events in the local and regional area. Our close relationship with Goodwood Estates provides the opportunity for our students to work with experts at events such as:

• Goodwood Members' Meeting
• Goodwood Festival of Speed
• Goodwood Revival
• Glorious Goodwood

You will also have the opportunity to undertake a one-year placement as part of the degree in your third year. The emphasis on practical experience through contact with 'real world' situations is an integral part of the programme.
