This programme has been developed by the Business School in consultation with the School of Arts and Cultures and key stakeholders from the creative industries. It examines the theoretical aspects of the creative industries and the social, cultural, economic, political and increasingly international contexts in which they operate. Since entrepreneurship education needs to be experiential, there is a significant practical element to the programme, including starting up your own enterprise, acting as a consultant in creative businesses and working with practitioners across the sector.
You take compulsory modules (120 credits) which typically include: understanding and managing creativity; arts as enterprise; business enterprise for postgraduate students; enterprise and entrepreneurship; creative industries; and research methods.
Your interests are then developed and integrated through the extended individual project (60 credits), during which you will be supported by an academic supervisor. In some cases the project may be sponsored by an external organisation.
