    What is an MSc in Arts Management? A master’s degree in arts management prepares students for a leadership role in arts-related positions that may combine the principles of law, economics, marketing and finance. Regardless of whether graduates plan to work in the private, public or nonprofit sectors, a Masters in Arts Management will give them the well-rounded educational background they will need for such management positions.

    The benefits of taking an MSc in Arts Management are many. Although the variety of arts-related job opportunities is vast, the multidiscipline approach of an MSc program will equip graduates to handle the many duties they could be called upon to perform in their management roles. Having an advanced degree also may allow them to enter the job market at a higher level or move up quickly once hired.

    The cost of a master’s program in arts management varies by school. Prices will depend on whether students are attending a physical school or taking online courses. In some instances, they may be doing both, which also will affect the cost of the program, as will involvement in practicum or internship opportunities.

    With an MSc in Arts Management, graduates may apply to leadership positions at any organization with an art, culture, theater, dance or music focus. They may curate or manage museums or art galleries, raise funds or organize events for nonprofit groups or handle the marketing or finances of a range of arts organizations.
