The creative economy (including film, music, writing, computer games, live performance and art practice) is one of the fastest growing industries. This programme will help you understand how to support and sustain cultural and creative activities, in terms of policy and governance.

If you want to shape the future of the cultural sector, the MA Culture, Policy and Management is for you. This master's will help you develop both the core and the transferable skills that are in demand in the complex and exciting world of the creative economy, including understanding and supporting innovation and creativity.

This programme will help you understand the big picture of the creative economy to make connections between different fields and activities, so you can become a competent professional ready to start, continue or change your career.

On completion of the course, you will be able to evaluate and integrate the theories and practices of culture, policy and management. The student experience runs through everything we do, from the structure of the course itself to our discussions and tutorials.
Who is this course for?
This master's is ideal for those who have an undergraduate degree and a passion for the arts, or for those coming from a social science perspective on policy and management. The key thing is a desire to work with the creative economy.
Career
The creative economy is one of todays most vibrant fields of activity, the leading edge of global transition to knowledge economies.

The challenge of managing and directing activity in this new field towards social and economic goals requires people trained in the multidisciplinary skills that this master's provides, more so than traditional arts policy, or management, or economics.

From orchestras and the fine art market, to marketing and management, most of our graduates are employed in cultural roles.
