In partnership with UC's Carl H. Lindner College of Business, CCM boasts one of the few combined MA/MBA Arts Administration programs in the country. The 2-year program trains future CEOs and senior managers to lead professional performing, visual and cultural arts organizations.
Arts Adminsitration students participate in professional internships locally and around the country to gain hands-on experience during their studies. While at CCM, they take classes in arts education, community engagement, fundraising, marketing, strategic management and more. The program is small and selective, accepting only eight to 10 students per class. This allows faculty to give individual attention and mentorship to develop the potential of each individual graduate student.
