MA Creativity, Leadership and Enterprise

... United Kingdom
... University of the Highlands & Islands

Course Overview

This course is specifically aimed at creative practitioners, art project managers, and innovators wanting to develop leadership and enterprise skills in the arts and cultural industries to further their careers in the creative economy.

Throughout the Highlands and Islands of Scotland and rural communities worldwide, some expressive specialists have completed a first degree in an arts, design, or media subject discipline and choose to work as sole operators or small businesses. For each, the notion of 'place' is central to their creative practice and where they choose to live and work - and where 'place' defines connectivity to a rich history, culture, and inspiring landscape. 

This online course allows you to work from the stimulating environment of your studio, workshop, business, or organization. You will develop research and analytical skills that examine and test new creative content and products; and through proactive engagement with the professional sector, you will acquire skills to transform original creative concepts and intellectual property into income-generating creative outputs.

Special features

  • Taught by a research-active and industry-experienced team with backgrounds in the arts, humanities, and business studies

  • Opportunities to engage with professional practitioners and organizations operating in the creative and cultural economy sector

  • Tailored to the emerging creative leader and entrepreneur working from their home studio or workshop in a rural environment

  • Opportunity to join the 'Centre for Rural Creativity' (CRC) community of practice, networked across the Highlands and Islands and beyond

  • Professional practice placement in the creative and cultural industry provides opportunities for project research and development, and sector-facing engagement and evaluation

  • The course is delivered online using a combination of seminars and tutorials (available in real-time or recordings) and scheduled discussions with tutors and fellow students, through our virtual learning environment (VLE) so you can study flexibly, where it suits you, in the UK and internationally
