The annual Fusion Festival returns with a range of events, organised by Events Management students in partnership with external stakeholders. The festival is being supported by听the Live Event teaching team, including, Dr James Obiegbu, Dr Aravind Reghunathan, Dr Julie Whitfield and Arkadiusz Tomasz.
In celebration of the fusion between research, education, and professional practice at BU, from Tuesday 2 May to Friday 14 May, nine events will take place in venues across Bournemouth, organised by听Events Management students.
The Events Management students have worked with staff, charities and businesses, demonstrating their skills and abilities to plan and co-create events that respond to an organisation鈥檚 specific need.听听听
Dr Aravind Reghunathan, Lecturer in Experiential Marketing and Management said "The Fusion Festival provides a platform for BU Events Management students to apply their course learnings on live events conducted for our external partners. The projects expose them to the challenges of planning, organising, staging, and evaluating a variety of events such as fundraisers and brand activations. Students also get to engage with the local communities and demonstrate their employability skills to a wider audience through these events."听
The live events are an integral part of the student learning experience and provide an opportunity for students to represent themselves, the Department of Sport & Event Management and 正澳门六合彩资料. The events provide a practical focus for the application of knowledge and skills acquired from within the Live Event unit on the undergraduate and postgraduate Events Management degrees and are designed to enable the development and use of event management skills in a real environment.听
Second-year Events Management student Ella Corbin said: "My team and I are excited to be developing and delivering an event in aid of Centrepoint charity, who support thousands of teenagers and young adults affected by youth homelessness each year. The process has been a fantastic learning experience and has put everything we have learned into practice, and we are really excited to host our music event to fundraise for our client."听
