Course summary
This programme is distinctive in its focus on cultural policy and business strategy as its programme engine to encourage research. The creative and cultural sector is developing rapidly as an important engine of global economic development. The industries under this sector are seen as a powerful source of income, job creation and export earnings for most advanced countries, and a feasible strategic option to diversify the economies of developing countries by offering new avenues for these countries to enter into value added high growth sectors of the emerging creative economy. This transformation has brought about the critical realisation that the role of the Arts Manager is far more complex. The college's MA Arts and Cultural Management is Southeast Asia's only English language postgraduate programme that provides theoretical and practical study, as well as research training, for both visual and performing arts. One of the strengths of the programme is its collaboration with industry. Graduates can progress as an arts /cultural entrepreneur, arts manager, gallery manager, museum/arts executive, arts writer/critic, arts consultant, arts marketing/public relation manager, museum curator, exhibition manager, events/festival manager, and programming manager.
