The cultural sector is expanding rapidly and many employers now seek a professional postgraduate qualification. This course is intended for cultural managers seeking further qualification in their field and for graduates from any discipline who want to develop professional and vocational studies at postgraduate level. It is suitable for those wishing to convert their career path from another discipline to cultural management.

The course covers specialist studies in the policy, strategy and management of cultural organisations, relevant to the needs of those who work in, and run, cultural organisations.

It offers flexible study through both full-time and part-time routes, with the opportunity for students to develop and apply their skills and individual interests within taught modules, workplace projects and research.

While encompassing basic management theory where relevant, the degree offers elements specific to the cultural sector which are not included within a conventional MBA.
