The course will examine key aspects of national and international arts management with particular reference to arts organisations in a cross-cultural context.

This will entail a consideration of current practices in Australia and overseas with respect to economic, political and socio-cultural factors. You will be introduced to issues relating to: resource and fiscal management; fund raising; policy development and implementation; entrepreneurship; and marketing and communication.

Please note, this course and the 24 credit point version Principles of Arts Management PERF 1025 are similar courses. The content is co-delivered through lectures, however the time allocation for tutorials and assessment tasks are different to reflect either an introductory experience or a more expansive experience. You cannot enroll in both courses. Choose the one that best suits your stage of career and your professional needs.
