Program description
We anticipate graduates from the most diverse preliminary education, such as arts and humanities or economics, but we are willing to accept students from other subjects as well. Our students' vibrant community is ensured by the members' diverse abilities and expertise. We anticipate anyone with an interest in the management of culture and the creative industries in their broadest sense.
The world of culture and art is in desperate need of professionals who can help to birth and realise creative and meaningful ideas. Art institutions and actors require skilled leaders, executives, and organisers who can coordinate and navigate in the field of art theory while also understanding how to economically develop, administer, and sustain art and design organisations. Professionals with practical skills and the ability to apply their knowledge locally and worldwide are required.
Those who complete the MA programme in Art and Design Management become professionals capable of developing and managing the product structure of for-profit and non-profit actors in the arts and creative sector, such as museums, arts venues, communication agencies, festival organising companies, and so on. Professionals who complete our programme are able to establish and maintain local and international relationships in the area, as well as develop in-depth understanding of the contemporary art and design scene and its trends.
