About this course
Project, product, and design management, commercial and operational skills are an advantage to art and design graduates, along with a critical understanding of what it means to deliver value (beyond monetary value), can provide a boost for mid-career creative practitioners.

This course offers tailored opportunities to develop your knowledge and skills in design and project and product management. You will participate in designing projects, develop a portfolio of projects in response to live briefs and deliver a major project working with key stakeholders or on your own personal enterprise and development pathway. You will gain skills in areas such as entrepreneurship, funding, marketing, collaborative practice, resource management, risk assessment and, importantly for creative practice, agile work flow.
