The Media Management concentration offers preparation for work in behind-the-scenes areas of media operations such as broadcasting, distribution, network operations, production, management, marketing, and sales. The program combines business and creative aspects of media, and blends theoretical and hands-on approaches to education. Used for instruction are a 40-foot mobile video production lab, post-production facilities, and cross-platform media experiences. Students are encouraged to complete their education with internships in professional settings.
NOTE: Students must earn a C (2.00) or better in each course in the college in order to graduate.
Accelerated Bachelors/Masters (ABM) Program
High achieving students majoring in Media and Entertainment who intend to pursue a master’s degree in Media and Communication may apply to participate in the Accelerated Bachelors/Masters (ABM) Program. The program allows undergraduate students an opportunity to complete the requirements for both the bachelor’s and master’s degrees in a compressed time frame. Participating undergraduate students may count up to 12 graduate credit hours toward both degrees and obtain a non-thesis master’s degree in the same field within 12 months of completing the bachelor’s degree or obtain a thesis-based master’s degree in the same field within 18 months of completing the bachelor’s degree. For more information about the ABM program, see the Graduate Catalog.
