for students who wish to pursue a managerial career within the entertainment industry.
The program is designed to provide students with an in-depth knowledge of the
performing arts industry, and to prepare them for a career in any area of the business,
from production to marketing and distribution.
The program is in partnership with ACCADEMIA TEATRO ALLA SCALA and TEATRO
PICCOLO DI MILANO.
The Master's program is planned to prepare global professionals who can bring a solid
cultural and artistic background coupled with economic and managerial skills to the
production of stage performances, with a particular focus on Europe, North America and
emerging markets.
Centering the development of each individual student, the curriculum features an
