MA / MSc in Information Management in the Cultural Sector
Career benefits
The programme is stimulating and aims to produce graduates who will be future leaders in the field. As a student at City you will develop a range of skills, knowledge and attitudes that will lay the foundations of your future professional career.
The programme is taught by experienced staff with professional experience. Research and consultancy, often with an international dimension, keep staff in touch with professional practice and you will also have the opportunity to hear contributions and learn from visiting practitioners.
You will learn about the complexities of information services in an increasingly
digital environment and develop highly marketable skills in the organisation,
management and retrieval of information using modern tools. You will gain an
advanced understanding of the principles and practices of the cultural sector,
and how these inform the design, implementation and evaluation of information
services for the sector. Throughout your time at City, you will be encouraged
to reflect on what it means to be an information professional in a cultural
context, and to think about your role against the wider context of the legal,
ethical and social responsibilities that such work increasingly entails.
You will also be well prepared to undertake further academic research or to
pursue a higher degree.
