Managing Art & Cultural Heritage in Global Markets IntM
The International Masters in Managing Art & Cultural Heritage in Global Markets (MAGMa), aims to explore contemporary issues affecting the market for art and cultural heritage (A & CH) utilising historical, theoretical and experiential models, with the primary aim of better equipping the A & CH professional with the skills necessary to work within a highly complex and growing field worldwide. The collaboration of European and international university and cultural institutions will deliver a programme that combines theory with practice, enabling an integrated approach to understanding the social, economic, legal and cultural issues affecting the A & CH sectors with first-hand experience of contexts as diverse as museums, heritage sites, auction houses, dealers and foundations.
WHY THIS PROGRAMME
- This Programme brings together a consortium of five European universities: University of Glasgow, Institut d’Etudes Supérieures des Arts in Paris, University of Lisbon and University Institute of Lisbon, and Erasmus University Rotterdam, to deliver a unique multidisciplinary and cohesive approach to the art & cultural heritage field.
- Each member of the Consortium brings world-leading expertise in key aspects of collections history, the art market, art and heritage law and cultural heritage management and economics.
- Successful students will be awarded a multiple degree by the five contributing universities at the end of the two-year programme.
- The programme utilises historical, theoretical and practice-based models, with the primary aim of better equipping the Art & Cultural Heritage professional with the skills necessary to work within a highly complex, volatile and growing field worldwide.
- Mobility within Europe and beyond is built into the curriculum with opportunities to experience work placements in a range of private and public art and cultural institutions.
- Guest lectures are provided by leading academics and professionals from the art market, museums and other heritage organisations.
- Summer School partners include the Berlin State Museums, the Hermitage in St Petersburg, the Smithsonian Institution in Washington DC and the Hunterian, University of Glasgow.
- Access to language learning opportunities are also available throughout the two year programme.
CAREER PROSPECTS
The integration of academic theory with practice across an interdisciplinary curriculum will provide a broad skill-set and experiences that develop informed graduates capable of operating at strategic levels in the art and cultural and heritage sector, both public and private, or of undertaking further study. The programme is designed for students with a diverse range of backgrounds and specialisms (e.g. art and cultural history, art market studies, law, business), but who are interested in the ways in which the art and cultural heritage sector operates and can be managed within a global context.
