Arts Policy and Management (Postgraduate Certificate)

... United Kingdom
... Birkbeck University of London

Course Overview

Arts management plays a vital role in designing, shaping, and supporting the arts, helping to ensure that access, freedom, and equality are achieved across all aspects of the cultural sector. Our flexible Postgraduate Certificate in Arts Policy and Management is ideal if you are an arts manager already, and wish to develop your practice and deepen your understanding of the background, theories, and principles of arts and cultural management. Alternatively, if you are contemplating a career in arts policy and management and aim to understand current trends and debates that inform the day-to-day running of arts organizations, it provides a comprehensive overview of the sector. Making the most of our central London location, you can take advantage of one of the largest concentrations of art spaces, cultural organizations, and festivals, with the British Museum, Wellcome Gallery, Bloomsbury Festival and West End theatres, and a wealth of other museums and galleries within walking distance. For those who want to deepen their sector experience, we offer a placement module that encourages students to work on their own research interests within an arts organization. Past students have had valuable experiences in organizations ranging from the Greater London Authority to the Hackney Museum, and from the Big Dance Project to the Wallace Collection.

General Eligibility

You should have a second-class honors degree (2:2) or above in an arts subject, or in any subject together with the experience of administration/management in an arts/cultural organization, or three years relevant experience, for example in a senior management role in an arts/cultural organization.
