Subject

Event management

Our course gives you the skills, experience and contacts you need to have a sustained career as a manager in the creative industries and performing arts.

You start with a broad curriculum that allows you to explore and discover the many roles that exist. From the second year, you can specialise by following one of three management pathways: Music Industry Management; Management for Live Events or Theatre and Screen. If you wish, you can continue with a broad curriculum, selecting two options from the three pathways. We provide a creative environment for you to experiment and learn, as you expand your skills and knowledge and build a unique portfolio of creative, engaging and enterprising projects that you have managed and delivered.

This course was previously titled BA (Hons) Management of Music, Entertainment, Theatre & Events.

Assessment methods

You will be assessed through practical, verbal, and written work, including such things as presentations, tutor observation of your practical work, essays, short reports and evaluations, open book tests, spoken ‘viva’ reports and in your final year, a research-based project, which can be either a traditional written dissertation, or a more ‘practice-based’ project. All of your assignment tasks are designed to be relevant to and reflective of the work and knowledge you may be expected to engage with as a professional within the Creative Industries and Performing Arts. During your time as a Management student at LIPA, you will devise, produce, manage, and deliver a range of projects and creative products, taking on an increasing amount of individual responsibility for your work as you progress through each year.
