Creative Industries Business Management and Music Production (with Foundation Year)

CREATIVE INDUSTRIES BUSINESS MANAGEMENT

The Creative Industries Business Management degree combines two integrated streams of learning. The first develops your historical, theoretical, and critical understanding of the relationship between arts, cultural entrepreneurship, and business management across film, music, dance, theatre, festivals, galleries, and more. The second is professionally focused, exploring business methods such as finance, planning, law, and marketing and branding strategies within the creative industries.

This Creative Industries Business Management course uses seminars and workshops to examine important case studies, from SMEs to national organisations, highlighting business models and innovative approaches to marketing and communications strategies within the sector.

Professional experience is a key element of the Creative Industries Business Management degree. From the second part of Level I, the programme introduces work placement opportunities, ensuring that by the end of the course, you will have gained valuable experience working with external creative industries organisations.
