Event Management requires many different skills and you will cover a wide range of approaches to the subject. From the initial planning to on-the-day delivery, you'll build the theoretical knowledge and practical skills needed to deliver successful events. You will learn to manage different types of events, how to design events, how to manage people, how to promote your event through marketing expertise, and how to build your own events business. We’ll also investigate how events can contribute to the growth and regeneration of their host regions and consider the responsibilities businesses have to the wider community.
We will prepare you for your chosen career by hosting guest lectures from industry specialists, taking you on site visits and by giving you chance to work on live briefs. We understand the need for you to develop your own personal brand identity, so we will work with you to enhance your career potential on areas such as creating a strong digital CV.
York is a great setting to gain experience of event management. Events like the Ebor Festival, the Tour de Yorkshire, Aesthetica Short Film Festival, The Yorkshire Fringe and The Great Yorkshire Show are right on our doorstep. We have partnerships with organisations throughout the city and the region and you will have plenty of opportunities to put what you learn into practice and gain real industry experience.
