Overview

Key Features

In the first year, the BSc (Hons) Events Management degree at University of Lincoln introduces the broad subject areas that feed into the organisation and management of events. These include advertising, the experience economy, and marketing.

The second year focuses more closely on specific events practices and gives students the chance to put their learning into action by hosting an assessed event. Students can look at events themselves in more detail, with modules such as Project Management for Events, and Events Management,

During their second year, students have the option of studying abroad for two terms at one of the University’s partner institutions. Those who choose to do so are responsible for covering any travel, accommodation, and general living costs.

The final year of this course enables students to develop their knowledge further, and requires them to write a dissertation or take part in a live consultancy project.

Students may be able to take part in optional study visits throughout the course to events such as exhibitions. Those who choose to attend can expect to pay between £20 and £40 per visit. Students who select the optional third-year module Crisis and Disaster Management can choose to travel to Sri Lanka as part of a study visit.
