Creative Industries | Radboud University

The creative sector has changed significantly and developed into its own industry: companies and social institutions borrow ideas from artists and designers, the tourist industry happily uses literary concepts in their marketing, and classical music, art and museums play a large role in city branding. Similarly, the fashion industry has already proven that creativity and commerce fit together effortlessly. This development, however, needs to be evaluated critically from a historical and theoretical perspective. The Creative Industries Master's degree, which is unique to the Netherlands, provides you with the tools to do just that.

During the programme you will study the (post)industrial society as a cultural phenomenon and also analyse themes such as creativity and the so-called ‘21st Century Skills' in policy-making and education, the relationships between subjects and material culture, and how cultural heritage can be effectively incorporated in today's ‘participation society'.

Admission requirements:
