Module overview

In this module you will explore and evaluate a range of academic and industry skills and resources that are relevant across the programme and for your future professional development. These skills and resources engage with the diversity of what is involved with arts and cultural management and leadership, including: audiences; fundraising; business-start and entrepreneurship; recruitment marketing; research; academic practice; project management; presentation and communication. Across these areas, there is also variety in the digital media technologies, platforms, toolkits, canvases, and so on that are used. By combining approaches used within academic research and the arts and cultural sectors, the module emphasises the importance of an extensive and well-integrated understanding of different skills and resources. As you develop applied knowledge of these skills and resources, you will critically reflect on your own professional development needs and issues of accessibility and inclusivity.
