If you're looking for a degree that gives you flexibility between the programs offered within the Department, the Master of Arts in Media, Film & Journalism Studies: Student Designed Emphasis is the place to start.
The MA with a Student Designed Emphasis is a traditional research-oriented graduate program in the Department of Media, Film & Journalism Studies. It is a 48-hour, two year degree program, where you'll develop a research topic based on your own particular interests in mass communications, using the appropriate methodological tools studied within the first year of attendance.
After completing 16 hours in the program, you'll develop a thesis proposal for the research project. Once this proposal is approved, you'll concentrate on researching and writing the thesis during your second year of study. You must defend the thesis before a graduate thesis committee to successfully complete the program.
