• CCE is for those interested in creative businesses, cultural policy and management, urban regeneration or international cultural development.
• It is aimed at graduates who have already embarked on careers related to the cultural and creative industries or see themselves progressing in that direction.
• You can pursue this programme full time and part time.
  
  

• It is important to highlight that this is not an Arts Management programme. 
• Instead, we offer an exciting and challenging programme of modules and extra-curricular activities designed to develop your theoretical understanding of creative entrepreneurship and to provide you with opportunities to apply that knowledge.
• You will have opportunities to participate in internships with major creative businesses and policy bodies and engage in creative projects.
  
  
  
  

• Creative work is now recognised by societies around the world as an engine of future sustainable growth and development. Globally, creative entrepreneurship is changing the face of contemporary cultures and economies, with a new mix of entrepreneurial and creative energy.
• The CCE programme is an opportunity to understand more about these transformations and how they might be a critical context for how you develop your own personal creative practice.
• The programme benefits from our international networks of cultural policy makers, cultural entrepreneurs and academics.  The School actively develops relationships with a wide range of local, regional, national and international creative businesses, organisations and strategic bodies.
• Leeds, as a city, is a thriving place for creative entrepreneurs, and the programme and the students see themselves at the heart of it.
