Become a Leader in the Creative Economy
The co-major in Arts Management examines how to balance aesthetic understanding with specialized skills in generating income, managing boards, stimulating public access, and sustaining the mission and vision of organizations whose primary purpose is the delivery, presentation, and preservation of arts and culture.
These skills are applicable to arts councils, museums, community art centers, galleries, orchestras, theatres, and other creative enterprises.
The Arts Management and Entrepreneurship co-major was developed because students wanted more depth in their studies in this innovative field that combines artistic practice with foundational skills in arts management, business, creativity, and innovation in the arts.
Arts Management Curriculum and Courses
The Arts Management co-major is designed to provide a complementary perspective to a student’s primary major and carries at least 30 credits. There is no specific degree designation for the co-major; students receive the degree designation of their primary major with the co-major listed on the transcript. Completion of the co-major may satisfy the Global Miami Plan thematic sequence requirement.
A minimum overall 2.00 GPA is required for courses in the co-major. All courses, except the internship, must be taken for a grade.
- CCA 201 Introduction to Arts Management
- CCA 302 Arts Marketing and Engagement
- CCA 304 Financial Management and Fundraising in the Arts
- CCA 306 Arts Entrepreneurship

Student Engagement
Art is an important way of connecting the world and sharing our experiences and perspectives, so even if you’re not a creator, you can still engage in the arts through this program.
I chose Miami mainly because of the theater and the arts management department. I went to an Arts Day celebration in 2019 before everything shut down. And I really loved the connection that all the people in the theater department had with each other. I loved how much the professors really care about their students.

The arts management program was the perfect way to combine my passion for theatre with my interest in marketing. Working with students from all arts disciplines expanded my way of thinking and helped me see the world through a new lens.
