Media Ventures (MS)
Boston University · Boston, United States
About this programme
The MS in Media Ventures is a 12-month, three-term, bicoastal program that benefits from the strengths of both the Boston University College of Communication and the BU Los Angeles program. For their thesis project, students develop an idea for a new media business, product, or service. They spend the fall term in Boston where they begin to build their idea, complete with pitch, prototype, business, and marketing plans. The spring and summer terms will be spent at the BU Los Angeles program where, along with courses, students will complete two internships. At the conclusion of the program, students will pitch their capstone projects to a group of industry executives.
