EMERGING MEDIA

The Emerging Media program provides students with the skills required to pursue careers in
content programming, sales, advertising, and administration within both traditional and emerging
technology industries. Due to the increasing convergence within the media, managers need to
have a fundamental understanding of how all aspects of media organizations function (from planning
to production to distribution to evaluation). In addition, a program of sound business
fundamentals will be provided to accompany core media classes.
