The course will appeal to both UK and overseas degree graduates, and those seeking a career change, or museum and heritage staff selecting the part-time study option, wishing to up skill. You will develop an understanding of project management in museum operations, and learn about the principles involved with the construction and delivery of projects. You'll learn about the importance of taking a structured approach to project management through the development of an event plan which may incorporate making a business case, an outline of a project structure and you will also work on real-time projects in a museum environment. There is a strong demand for graduates in this sector with theoretical knowledge well informed by practice-based learning, which can be a main barrier to employment in museums. This course will provide an in-depth experience, engaging in practice with live projects within a museum environment, generating real public impact. Modules have been developed to address this need.
