This course

This course is based on the final year of our BSc (Honours) Events and Leisure Management. It allows you to top up your current qualifications to honours degree level.

You can apply for this course if you have a • higher national diploma • foundation degree • or equivalent in a relevant subject.

The events and leisure industries are an important part of cultural and business activity in the UK and overseas. They include private, public and voluntary organisations.

This course meets the increasing demand for graduates with management skills in planning and organising events.

It prepares you for a career in events management but with a specialisation in sport and leisure events and the management of multi-purpose venues, such as football and sports stadia.

You study events theory, policy and practice integrated with business management. We develop your understanding of what is involved in planning and managing events and other leisure activities.

An important part of your work involves projects and business simulation. Through these, you experience the part venues play in the leisure industry and in events such as • sporting events • concerts • festivals • business conferences • weddings.

We focus the course on the events and leisure industry, but the broader analytical and personal skills you develop are applicable to many careers.

Your learning involves taking part in seminars, workshops and projects in our modern facilities at City Campus.
