Student Profiles

Alice Leeman

Studying on the Arts and Project Management course has given me a combination of professional skills with industry knowledge and I now feel that I would be an asset to an arts organisation. I have met a number of professionals who have been visiting lecturers, and their insight into the sector has inspired me further.

Alex Laight

I chose the MA Arts and Project Management because I wanted more opportunities to gain employment within the arts and the School of Art has established links with arts venues and projects. I have worked as an intern and gained work experience at The New Art Gallery Walsall. The course is flexible and the experience has been invaluable.
