Emerging Media Masters

Emerging Media Masters

The Emerging Media Masters is the New Media Institute's post-graduate program that focuses on the intersection of technology and design. Heavily drawing upon the courses taught in the certificate, the masters program features a project-based curriculum with a presentation of the capstone project at its conclusion. The capstone project may be of 3 categories: Product Development, Applied Technical or Design Research Publications, or Client-Based Solutions. My capstone project is a Client-Based Solution, where I work within a team of 3 to create a brand new podcast, Georgia On Your Mind. Using guidance learned from the courses below, we will work to build new branding, develop promototion, and, of course, produce podcast episodes.

Double Dawg Courses

There are several courses that count towards the Emerging Media currciulum, but were taken during my undergrad. UGA's Double Dawg program allowed me to take these graduate-level courses before graduating with my bachelor's. These courses counted towards both the New Media Certificate and Emerging Media curriculum.
