program.&nbsp; Established&nbsp;as an \u201cMBA for creative professionals,\u201d this innovative program is fully online and accelerated, allowing students to earn a Master of Arts degree in only 16 months. The inaugural class of 17 students includes both recent graduates and mid-career professionals from the fields of theater, music, film and arts administration, among other areas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Master of Arts&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;What they have in common, says Bob Lyons, the Graduate Program Director, is the desire to level up their skills, make connections and become change-makers in their fields.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Lyons heralded the flexible nature of the program. Offering both full-time and part-time options, the program is primarily asynchronous, allowing students to complete coursework and participate in class discussions on their own schedules. The only exceptions are two synchronous three-day immersions which bookend the program. These immersions allow students to meet faculty and each other in real time, work collaboratively on assigned projects and begin building the networks which will last them throughout their careers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Among the courses offered are: The Advocate, Architect &amp; Ambassador: Leadership for a Successful Organization; Failure 1, 2, 3: How to Rebuild the Idea; Foundations of Finance in Creative Enterprises; and Legal Basics: IP, Copyright, Contracts and Employment Law.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For more information, please visit the Emerson BCE&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/emerson.edu\/majors-programs\/graduate-programs\/business-creative-enterprises-ma-online\/summary\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>website<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>GSA Events<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Graduate Student Association is responsible<strong>&nbsp;<\/strong>for creating professional and social opportunities for students.&nbsp;This past academic year GSA hosted a variety of&nbsp;activities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During the Spring Semester GSA hosted Submit It!, a writing pitch and submission talk and event.

So, he decided to do volunteer work, aiding refugees. He was in Athens, Greece for a few months and then decided he wanted to make a film about what he was seeing. Nezam says,&nbsp;&#8220;I made a film about several squat communities &#8211; a network of different abandoned buildings that have been repurposed by the anarchist community in this specific neighborhood in Athens.&#8221; This group of people trying to house a bunch of refugees who didn&#8217;t have a place to sleep fascinated Nezam. He explained that people repurposed entire hotels to house these communities.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Nezam&#8217;s interest in film started when he left high school early and went to community college. He says that&#8217;s where he first developed his love for cinema and realized it could be a serious art form. From community college he transferred to Webster University in St. Louis. Then, in 2021, Nezam was named the inaugural Toward Belonging Creative Fellow at the Othering and Belonging Institute at UC Berkeley. The current film project that he&#8217;s working on at Emerson first started with a grant from UC Berkeley.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Before starting his first semester in Boston, Nezam did all the filming for his project. He started the MFA program&nbsp;in&nbsp;September of 2022 with his film already in post-production. During spring semester, he workshopped his footage and&nbsp;was finishing&nbsp;up the editing process with the support and guidance of classmates and faculty mentors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>New and Returning Graduate Student Orientation 2022\/23<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n<style>.kadence-column3711_075fb1-58 > .kt-inside-inner-col,.kadence-column3711_075fb1-58 > .kt-inside-inner-col:before{border-top-left-radius:0px;border-top-right-radius:0px;border-bottom-right-radius:0px;border-bottom-left-radius:0px;}.kadence-column3711_075fb1-58 > .kt-inside-inner-col{column-gap:var(--global-kb-gap-sm, 1rem);}.kadence-column3711_075fb1-58 > .kt-inside-inner-col{flex-direction:column;}.kadence-column3711_075fb1-58 > .kt-inside-inner-col > .aligncenter{width:100%;}.kadence-column3711_075fb1-58 > .kt-inside-inner-col:before{opacity:0.3;}.kadence-column3711_075fb1-58{position:relative;}@media all and (max-width: 1024px){.kadence-column3711_075fb1-58 > .kt-inside-inner-col{flex-direction:column;justify-content:center;}}@media all and (max-width: 767px){.kadence-column3711_075fb1-58 > .kt-inside-inner-col{flex-direction:column;justify-content:center;}}<\/style>\n<div class=\"wp-block-kadence-column kadence-column3711_075fb1-58\"><div class=\"kt-inside-inner-col\">\n<p>Emerson held our Fall Orientation in the Paramount Center in late August 2022.
