Course overview
This postgraduate course is perfect if you’re looking to turn creative ideas into real, viable ventures and success. You don’t need a business background at all. What you do need is drive and ambition. The course starts with ideation and research modules, where you test ideas, conduct market research and get feedback on your concept.
Next you’ll move into business planning and professional practice—building a prototype, working on pitches and studying case studies from creative-sector startups and successes. Towards the end of the degree, you’ll produce a major project, whether that’s launching a brand, creating a digital platform or presenting an entrepreneurial initiative of any kind.
Small class sizes and industry connections mean you’ll network with mentors, collaborators and even potential investors or employers, let alone business professionals. This course helps you build something you’re passionate about and can turn into a sustainable creative business.

The Tuition Fee of the course may vary depending on the institution you wish to study at, as well as your status in the UK. The course is available for UK/EU & International Students and eligible for Student Loans Company (SLC) funding to help cover the cost of your tuition fees and other expenses.
If you are an UK/EU citizen or living in the UK on an Indefinite stay, apart from the tuition fees, you could also receive support from the government via Student Loans Company to cover some living costs while studying.
Fees breakdown
- Tuition fee loans cover the full cost of your course and are paid directly to the course provider.
- Maintenance Loan pays for day-to-day living expenses like rent, bills, food and books. Unlike the fees loan, it's paid directly to your student bank account once a term and you can spend it on anything you like.
- Student Finance has to be paid back, however, you only make Student Loan repayments once you've left your course AND are earning enough. Repayments vary with your salary, and stop altogether if your income drops too low.
- Students can also apply for other types of special support grants, such as childcare grants or Disabled Students' Allowance if eligible.
- Moreover, almost all universities offer a selection of student bursaries. These are cash gifts you usually don't have to repay.
