Event Management

Throughout the world, humans congregate, gather, and collaborate to learn, celebrate, and meet. This program will cover a wide overview of the event industry. You’ll participate in defining, understanding, and applying the elements involved in planning and staging corporate, social/life cycle, festivals and conferences, and the types of organizations that produce and present them.

By connecting with professors and fellow peers and through the use of independent research, group work, discussions, and experiential work-integrated learning, you’ll examine management practices, including how events are designed, funded, staffed, and promoted. You can expect exposure to the planning and development of sustainability, creativity, sales and marketing, and budgeting along with an understanding of volunteer and team building.
