Master of Arts in Arts Administration – Goucher College
Designed for the working professional, the M.A. in Arts Administration from Goucher College allows you to live and work wherever you are while you learn and study with national arts leaders.
Established 22 years ago, our graduate program is a low-residency format which combines distance-learning by video conference with a short on-campus residency in July.
The goal of the M.A.A.A. program is to ensure the future success of arts administrators in a global and ever-changing field. Faculty who are themselves working arts administrators help prepare students in practical and adaptive ways, bringing insight and experience to individual learning. Connections are made, networks are established, and long-lasting relationships are built.
FLEXIBLE.
Our low-residency format provides the flexibility to enhance your career without interrupting your life. Keep your job and engage in advanced learning that is interactive and immediately applicable. Attend classes backstage, from your office, or wherever your career takes you. An annual residency brings faculty and students together on campus to engage, share, network, and learn together.
PRACTICAL.
You’ll study with experts and leaders, hone your practical knowledge, and polish the skills you need to be a more knowledgeable, more connected, and more resilient leader. Scholarships are available.
