Master of Creative Enterprise
The Master of Creative Enterprise (MCE) combines research and practice to give you the skills you need to make your mark in the highly competitive creative industries.
Take your creativity to the market
You’ll learn about a range of creative roles. You will then develop innovative commercialisation models to take your creative work to the marketplace.
With taught courses in critical studies and enterprise, as well as an individual creative project, the MCE emphasises entrepreneurship and innovation. You’ll be encouraged to explore the commercial applications of your work.
Your projects will focus on building a sustainable career in the creative sector. You will learn practical skills in areas such as lighting and sound design, studio production, software development and audio-visual content, depending on your area of focus.
If you have a creative idea you want to develop and commercialise, the Master of Creative Enterprise will equip you with the tools to see your creative vision from development through to commercialisation.
