Creative Industries Business Management and English Language (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.

ENGLISH LANGUAGE

The English Language degree at Liverpool Hope University offers the opportunity to explore the structures, histories, and uses of language in one of the UK’s most linguistically diverse cities. From Liverpool’s distinctive accents and dialects to the bilingual heritage of Chinatown and the Viking influences of the Wirral, the region provides a rich and vibrant backdrop for studying language.

This English Language course equips you with critical, analytical, and digital skills that are valued by employers worldwide. You will study in small groups with international scholars from diverse fields of linguistics, engage with Liverpool’s cultural institutions, and have access to Special Collections, which house rare books and manuscripts dating back to the ninth century.

As part of the English Language degree, students conduct independent research on topics ranging from AI-generated prose to political speech analysis and the history of words. Graduates pursue careers in journalism, law, policing, teaching, education, and postgraduate study, supported by a strong focus on employability, ethics, and sustainability.
