The online Master of Science in Performing Arts 领导 & 管理 is designed to provide future performing arts executive and artistic leaders with the industry skills required in the 21st century.
The Performing Arts 领导 & 管理 (PALM) program provides online classroom training in arts leadership, 市场营销, 筹款, 财务管理, entrepreneurship and governance, and program/project planning that prepares students to find a meaningful professional career in the field of performing arts management, artistic leadership and arts entrepreneurship.
The program is intended for students who hold a baccalaureate degree in music, 剧院, 舞蹈或相关领域, emerging leaders who hold an entry-level arts position and are seeking to advance their career, and those seeking to change careers to arts leadership and management.
The 36-credit program can be completed in as little as two years, taking 9 credits per semester or may be completed at a slower pace.
Experiential learning opportunities are embedded in the program, including arts management internships and optional enrollment in the annual 10-day Arts 领导 Institute in Athens, 希腊.
The Master of Science in Performing Arts 领导 & 管理 curriculum prepared me to be a leader in this field. I was positioned for success through experience-based instruction that challenged me as a professional and encouraged critical thinking. The internships I secured as a part of the program provided both high-level connections and the necessary experience to enter the workforce. 甚至在毕业之前, I found myself in high demand in the field, equipped with all of the skills I would need to excel.”

PALM 4+1 Program For Current Shenandoah Students
谢南多厄音乐学院 students may apply for the PALM 4+1 accelerated program in their sophomore year and once accepted, take PALM required courses during their undergraduate studies, participate in the annual Arts 领导 Institute in Athens, 希腊 (GEL course) and register for an internship course during the summer between senior year and their one year of graduate study. Online courses in the PALM program are designed as asynchronous learning, giving students the opportunity to learn at their own pace.
The PALM program is now fully online so students do not need to stay in Winchester for their one year of graduate study. Students who do decide to stay on campus to continue with studio classes, perform in ensembles and productions, and take advantage of campus life, will form a “study group” with other resident students.
