Arts and Administration
Arts management combines knowledge and expertise from the arts with social, cultural, managerial, and educational perspectives for the purpose of creating, implementing, and administering arts and cultural programs in non-profit, for-profit, and unincorporated organizations and institutions. Faculty and students in the Arts and Administration Program are creating a dynamic environment where students from around the world are immersing themselves in a challenging course of study. The master's degree offered by the Arts and Administration Program (either MA or MS in Arts Management) is a two-year full-time course of study that includes core requirements, technology requirements, research, an area of concentration, and an internship.
