You also help real-world clients solve business and societal challenges through a semester-long research project.

Students who earn their MS in Emerging Media Studies leave with cutting-edge ideas, solutions to real media challenges, and a portfolio to prove it. Youll join a global alumni network that is shaking up the media landscape around the world.
