Introduction
The Postgraduate in Event Design and Management places the students in the world of communication and its tools, highlighting the different parts that make up the coordination of an event. It teaches them a methodology to be used as a tool for organising events and giving them communicative value.
An event is a channel for communicating messages. Holding small- and large-scale events is one of the marketing and communication strategies most often used by companies and agencies. Because of their adaptability and possibilities for innovation, they are an effective tool for communicating concepts, launching products and organising corporate actions.
Objectives
The course presents the key factors that define an event as a communication channel and is designed to impart the different points to be taken into account when organising an event, as part of a strategic communication plan. It analyses the new event formats that are the response to the concept of presentation in a specific place at a specific time and ends with the production of a complete, practical document organising one event, applying the methodology learned to a case study.
Methodology
The curriculum starts with an introduction to the cultural and social factors behind events. It continues with a practical section, the briefing on the case study, which takes place in class, in groups, to provide the students with specific knowledge of the profession.
Throughout the entire process, two key methodologies are used: ROLE-PLAY (from the start of the course the students become an agency and must work as one during the project) and COOPERATIVE LEARNING (during the first half of the course, with coordination, the students provide content for the course to their colleagues).
At the end of the course, the student-agency presents the project to the teaching staff-client.
Student Profile
Graduates or post-2nd year students of marketing, communication, PR and production or professionals from the marketing or communication sector with proven experience. A basic knowledge of communications, marketing, finance, advertising or creative disciplines are valued.
