About Creative and Cultural Industries Management, MSc - at University of Sheffield

On our Creative and Cultural Industries Management MSc you'll learn the critical skills and essential knowledge you need to become a successful manager in the cultural and creative sector. You may also have the option to undertake an organisational project, giving you real-world work experience within a creative organisation.

The city makes this programme unique. Sheffield is an exciting place to specialise in the creative and cultural industries thanks to its internationally renowned museums and galleries, thriving music scene, and one of the largest regional theatre complexes outside London. The city regularly hosts high-profile exhibitions as well as stages its own events in several pop-up and DIY venues. Sheffield boasts a vibrant creative industries quarter and frequently sends its theatrical productions to the West End.

This course provides general training in management with an emphasis on understanding and managing creative enterprises and cultural organisations. Students are encouraged to make use of Sheffield's strong creative and cultural brands such as Museums Sheffield, S1, Showroom Cinema, and Sheffield Theatres.

Cultural field trips to experience creative programmes at various destinations are an integral part of this course, and guest speakers working in the sector provide professional expertise. Volunteering opportunities in the sector may also be available. You can also apply to base your dissertation on a project with a high-profile arts organisation or event in the city.
