This program is designed with a contemporary vision towards redefining how we think about and practice the Creative Arts. Our future arts leaders must be innovative thinkers that are well versed in not only the arts, but also in other areas such as business, philanthropy, entrepreneurship, diversity/equity/inclusion, and global strategy. They must be proactive in the creation of interdisciplinary intersections that are at the forefront of societal change.

Creative individuals (Creatives) approach problem solving with innovative thinking and they display the ability to connect and engage with broad audiences. They have become sought after employees for nearly any company seeking a competitive edge.
