We understand culture as both a creative output that fathoms an alternative and, in the anthropological sense, a way of life that determines human behaviours. We see enterprise as the process of creating value, whether it is social, political, cultural or economic, through new ideas, initiatives and strategies. Culture is a key to driving systemic change.
Academics and students in the programme benefit from exploring the intersections of culture and enterprise. Student curators learn and develop entrepreneurial skills to help them support artists more effectively and management students use design processes to find and solve intractable problems. Many graduates of the programme enter new and emerging professions, forging alliances with industry to contribute to future ecologies of institutions and ideas.
