The degree is structured around two key premises: performance and entrepreneurial. The performance premise focuses the degree to the talents and aspirations of students as well as the context of specific professional activities associated with work in creative industries. The entrepreneurial premise provides the student with a strategy and an opportunity to create a future in the creative industries for themselves. It is these two premises that make the degree distinctive to the market and which ensures graduates are employable at its completion. Importantly these two premises will act as a planning framework for course identification and subsequent offerings.
