Rather than a one-size-fits-all curriculum, Emerson\u2019s Strategic Marketing Communication MA offers 5 core courses and 5 electives. Students get to hand pick all 5 electives and can choose a concentration in Strategic Planning, Digital Strategy, or Brand Strategy, tailoring their graduate education to their career goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our <strong>Business of Creative Enterprises<\/strong> program stands apart for its blending of creativity and business development. This is a degree designed to support artists in making their craft into a business or in advancing their current business career. With a focus on equity, the Business of Creative Enterprises MA equips students to make positive changes within the business sector. Plus, this program is entirely online, making it convenient and accessible to students all over the country.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Digital Communication Leadership<\/strong> is our newest graduate program, and it\u2019s the first of its kind. This program is designed to advance students in their careers to management roles by providing a customizable curriculum that fills in students\u2019 individual knowledge gaps. The curriculum is entirely online and asynchronous, making it convenient for working professionals. Carefully designed, this program teaches students the skills employers look for for in these higher leadership positions. In this program, students take 4 required courses and then choose their remaining 4 electives based on their professional needs. We actually launched the Digital Communication Leadership program based on feedback we received from graduated MA students. They told us what additional skills they needed to advance their careers further, and we built this program. Another unique part of the Digital Communication Leadership program is that one of the courses counts towards <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pmi.org\/certifications\/project-management-pmp\"><strong>Project Management certification<\/strong><\/a><strong>.<\/strong>\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/websites.emerson.edu\/grad-life\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/37\/2024\/01\/Campus-1-1-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"A window with &quot;Emerson College&quot; etched into the glass\" class=\"wp-image-3916\" srcset=\"https:\/\/websites.emerson.edu\/grad-life\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/37\/2024\/01\/Campus-1-1-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/websites.emerson.edu\/grad-life\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/37\/2024\/01\/Campus-1-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/websites.emerson.edu\/grad-life\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/37\/2024\/01\/Campus-1-1-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/websites.emerson.edu\/grad-life\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/37\/2024\/01\/Campus-1-1.jpg 1500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Q: Who is a good fit for Emerson\u2019s marketing, business, and leadership programs?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A: Any student with an interest in strategic marketing should apply for our <strong>Strategic Marketing Communication<\/strong> program.

Full-time students graduate in 1.5-2 years, while part-time students complete the program over a longer period of time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Students can complete the <strong>Business of Creative Enterprises<\/strong> program in as little as 16 months.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Graduate students in our <strong>Digital Communication Leadership <\/strong>MA typically graduate in one year if they enroll full-time. Part-time students generally graduate in two years. Students with 5+ years of experience may be eligible to waive one elective course, allowing them to graduate even more quickly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Q: Do I need to move to Boston?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A: Our Strategic Marketing Communication MA is fully in-person.
