Suie Zhao - MBA in Arts and Cultural Management

Rachel recently joined Christie’s Museum Services department in New York, which offers a variety of customized services, including appraisals, buying and selling.

Thanks to its strategic combination of art history and art business it offers specialised knowledge on visual and decorative arts, whilst at the same time preparing you for the art market.

This master’s prepared me by giving me the resources necessary to further develop. I learned how to look at things: how to approach, narrow and focus.

Bhisma Neupane, MBA in Cultural Entrepreneurship and Tourism

The course is very thorough and will provide greater knowledge into the art scene, and the fieldtrips they take you on are unique experiences.

The MBA in Arts and Cultural Management is full of opportunities for students to actually do things in the field

My experience is that IESA has been all-encompassing, and has provided students like me with the opportunities needed to reach professional goals and connect with others in the art industry.

Léonore recently joined Art Agenda, S.E.A, an art advisory firm based in Singapour, specialised in Southeast Asian modern paintings.

An Kaiye is an IESA alumna from China who now works as a curator for an art gallery. She graduated from IESA's MBA in Contemporary Art: Sales, Display and Collecting.

Marine was intern for a few months at the Dia Art Foundation in New York, which considerably influenced the rest of her career.

The MA provided very specialized training that was perfectly balanced in both theory (art history) and business (the art market).
