Arts, Culture, & Entertainment Management

Arts, Culture, and Entertainment (ACE) Management is an interdisciplinary program in business, art, culture, entertainment, and entrepreneurship. All students complete the same core studies in ACE Management, as well as a set of courses within their selected specialization, tailored to the specialization’s focus and the student’s individual interests. Students choose a specialization in one of the following areas:

• Visual Arts
• Performing Arts
• Entertainment and Commercial Arts
• Cultural and Public Administration

The career success of the program’s graduates is supported by the five separate on-the-job experiences each student gains. These experiences may be completed locally, regionally, nationally, and/or internationally, including a funded experience in London, exclusive to ACE Management.

Environmental Policy

Environmental policy students combine an understanding of environmental problems with knowledge of human needs, history, politics and economics to derive practical solutions to environmental issues. They engage in an interdisciplinary study of humankind’s impact on nature. Those in the field may study policy on polluted areas, advise environmental officials and promote waste reduction in the industry. Students can custom design their degree plan based on their area of strength such as field ecology, plant diversity, environmental anthropology, hazardous substances, constitutional law or environmental issues in developing nations.

Organizational Studies

Organizational studies blends the disciplines of organizational communication and industrial organizational psychology with management. By studying organizational behavior and structure in the public and private realms, students acquire the knowledge and skills that prepare them for entry-level administrative positions in both public and private organizations. The organizational studies major builds on the general education through a variety of courses in business, management, communication and psychology. The interdisciplinary degree allows students to custom design their schedule based on individual interest.
