You will explore the applied, logistical, business and operational elements of event management, and learn from and work with event managers who have staged events all over the world.An integral part of this programme is emphasis on practical experience through contact with ‘real world’ situations. The BA (Hons) Event Management Top-Up degree is a business based degree that will equip you with the skills to be successful in this very competitive industry. By joining the final year of BA (Hons) Event Management as a top-up student, you can also choose to undertake a 10 week work placement to gain valuable experience working in an organisation, or write a thesis for a management project.Emphasis will also be placed on health and safety and risk management. Final year modules including, sponsorship, public relations and marketing communications are designed to support you in the delivery of you final ‘live’ event or your thesis. Each module you’ll undertake is usually supported by a weekly tutor-facilitated workshop of approximately 2.5-3 hours.

In the past students have organised spectacular events including auctions, gala balls, award ceremonies, music festivals, fashion exhibitions, sport challenge events, game shows and family fun days. If you choose to write a thesis, you will be assigned to your own personal project supervisor.Our assessments are varied and you may be asked to write event proposals, operational plans, design social and multimedia tools or websites, plan live events and to deliver PowerPoint pitches and presentations.We believe that this hands-on approach to learning and varied assessment is the most effective way to develop the skills that employers are looking for.
