What You'll Study

1 Module

Our modules cover subject areas that are core to the management of practical and critical issues in events. The modules immerse students into the policy and politics in events, and issues related to branding, and equip them with skills in critical inquiry and research.

They are delivered using traditional lecture content, recorded conversation with practitioners, policymakers, or guest academics, and via tutorials or workshops. We will make use of a variety of teaching tools including case studies, student-led presentations, discussion tasks, and practical activities designed to enable students to take responsibility for their own learning and develop a rounded understanding of the subject matter.

Students are assessed by applying a range of practically-focused assignments, including written reports, case studies, portfolios, presentations, and other assessment formats which will replicate the types of practice graduates will be expected to undertake in their typical working life upon completion of the program.
