The aim of the MA study programme “Creative Industries and Growth Management” is to train strategically minded and creative change implementing leaders, capable of leading growth processes and valuing and applying diversity. The programme will provide students with a set of knowledge and competencies that will develop growth thinking on a personal, organisational, and global level, promoting an understanding of the potential of creative industries and the importance of cultural values in a changing global economy.
