Media Arts A.S.

Formerly: Media Technology & Management A.A.S.

 

The Associate degree in Media Arts is designed to ready students for immediate entry into media, broadcasting and its allied fields, or to transfer to many outstanding four-year programs with various specializations.

Students can focus on studio operations, television, recording, radio or media performance. The degree requirements show that the majority of major courses are student choices to be made with their academic advisor.

The Media Arts program is particularly proud of the number of graduates that are working and have achieved a level of distinction. A partial list of graduates reveals the diversity of jobs in the industry and indicates the breadth of knowledge needed for success.

Media majors are encouraged to become active at WKRB-FM or with KCC Television.
