This Creative Industries and Arts Organisation MA will provide you with strategic research and ethical organising capacity for work in the creative industries. Building on a resilient and sustainability-oriented network of practitioners, creatives, organisers and strategic collaborators, this course offers a complex view of the often precarious forms of work and organisation that have emerged in the creative sectors, and the relation of these forms of creative work to social justice and economic and political equality of access for diverse Black, Asian, Indigenous, Latinx, queer, and working-class communities. We draw from existing knowledge in the departments of Drama, Film, Law, English and Geography, and the School of Business and Management. As well as business modules, you can take four art-centred modules, such as French Film, Mental Health and Theatre, or Cultural Geography. This allows you to gain a full-spectrum understanding of the industry and to tailor your learning to suit your career trajectory. You will delve into subjects at the heart of the creative industries, including: equality and diversity the organisation and administration of art and culture in capitalist and socialist societies in the Global North and Global South ethical marketing democracy and cultural administration critical management and organisational studies digital communication and actor network theory fundraising and finance project management You will research the organisational practices of partner organisations and through open discussions, debates and guest speakers (artists, creatives, arts administrators, cultural organisers).
