Master of Culture and Arts in Media Management

In today’s world, know-how in media management is a key competence for every organisation. A media manager today does not necessarily have an educational background in media or culture. We believe that a successful media manager needs to have a multidisciplinary understanding of the media, based on leadership, technology and culture. The master’s degree programme in Media Management at Arcada provides you with skills, competencies and knowledge needed for navigating the ever-changing media environment.

Our programme presents you with real-life cases and projects useful to a media manager in any organisation. It gives you a unique opportunity to integrate your previous studies and professional experience with fresh in-depth knowledge. Media management is a rapidly growing research field that analyses the economic, cultural and technological transformations and tendencies in the media industry. In this programme you will also find yourself in a research-oriented environment.

The programme can be completed in one year as full-time studies, or two years as part-time studies. Lectures are mainly held in the afternoon and evenings, from 16:00 to 20:00. Each study unit offers the possibility to do your studies online. This includes a wide range of e-learning possibilities, such as webinars, online lectures, and more traditional readings and essays, depending on the content and learning outcomes of the study unit. Lectures are always held on weekdays, not on weekends.
