Core courses
The core courses provide training for skills in art history and arts management and they will give participants the opportunity to balance their competencies.
Students will have the possibility to enhance their knowledge on the topics of Visual and Performing Arts, starting from an historical point of view, moving to the study of the whole contemporary system of both forms of art and of their evolution in time.
Advanced courses
During the HR and Leadership course, students will explore people management practices, organization and project management competences for creative and arts-based organizations; thanks to the course in Marketing in the Arts, they will study the principles and techniques of arts and culture marketing, focusing on the specific characteristics of marketing applied to arts and cultural products. Legal and cultural policy aspects will be included in the programme of advanced courses, in order to give the students a comprehensive view of the stakeholders of artistic institutions and of the rules of the game. The students will be able to understand and appreciate the commercial side of the arts, by studying the structure and various segments of today’s international art market. To conclude, advanced courses will account for the use of the media, with a focus on the importance of digital technologies.
