Course Description

This three-year degree gives you a thorough grounding in all aspects of event management, from designing and selling to planning, implementing and evaluating events for the profit and not-for-profit sectors.

You will also have the opportunity to be involved with the planning and staging of live events.

Strong industry links will afford students a number of networking opportunities with the industry's experts and the chance to take up mentorship positions with its leaders.
