The advantages of the Master's in Cultural Management and Engineering
Throughout the course, students attend weekly lectures given by professionals from the cultural sector. They also take part in a study trip and can get involved in the Culture Touch' student association, which organises cultural events linked to the course. Students have free access to News Tank Culture, a specialised media offering news, data and interviews on the world of culture. They also join a private LinkedIn group reserved for former students (alumni), encouraging exchanges and professional opportunities. Finally, the course includes professional certification in project management.
At the end of the course, you must also write and defend a Master's thesis under the supervision of an IPAG teacher-researcher. Mentioning this exercise, and the subject of your work, on your CV will demonstrate your expertise in an HR-related field and your ability to think in depth using a scientific approach.
This trip, which takes place at the end of January, is organised by the second-year students. With the help of the course director, they choose the destination, the professionals to meet and the cultural institutions to visit. Students in this course play an active role on the ICP campus, and their cultural projects are assessed as part of their course.
