Industry Links

We connect directly with a range of theatre companies, festivals, venues, local and central government bodies and arts development agencies to ensure that students are meeting, hearing from, and working with professionals and policymakers. Through these industry links, students are supported to connect theory to practice and practice to theory to assist them in their future careers in an increasingly diverse field of work.

Student Experience

Belfast and Northern Ireland are home to a wide range of arts and cultural organisations leading in areas of community engagement. Guest speakers and industry professionals are a feature of the programme. Lecturers work closely with students to ensure that their involvement with the modules and assessments on the Programme connect directly with their personal learning needs. We provide a welcoming environment for both local and international students. Students are supported and encouraged to socialise and attend local arts events together. We take intercultural education very seriously in the MA in Arts Management and believe that students on the MA can learn from one another as well as from their tutors and lecturers on the course. Students have a unique opportunity to meet and work with artists studying on other MA pathways in the School.
