As an Arts Management student, you may focus studies on music, theatre, visual arts, or you can choose a general approach by taking courses in all three areas.
Students may be granted advanced standing for all of the courses from this certificate programme towards the fulfilment of graduation requirements for a degree (i.e. all courses completed in the certificate program may count towards a B.A. degree) and all of the courses from a degree programme may be counted towards the requirements of this certificate programme. The Certificate may be completed alongside a degree or on its own.
This programme is intended primarily for students who wish to receive recognition for studies in arts management, but who do not necessarily intend to complete a degree programme.
