Enhance Your Knowledge of Communication and Strategic Marketing Campaigns with Liberty University!
Does your career field require you to become a better communicator? Maybe you would like to work in digital marketing or public relations, or perhaps you’d simply like to learn communication skills that can improve workplace efficiency, reduce confusion, and optimize customer service. At Liberty University, we understand how critical communication is to an effective organization. If you’re looking to become an articulate game-changer who is skilled in marketing strategy and the transmission of information, Liberty’s School of Communication and the Arts offers several communication-focused master’s degrees that can help you reach your full professional potential.
As rapidly evolving technology changes digital marketing, it is essential to have fundamental skills to adapt to the field. Our M.A. in Strategic Communication program is designed to prepare you with marketing theories and concepts that can apply to small businesses and major corporations alike. While courses in our M.A. in Communication will also teach marketing strategies, this degree is more theoretical in nature. The M.A. in Communication will teach proven communication practices for conflict resolution and group environments, as well as how to use tactful persuasive techniques crucial to the efficient completion of goals and tasks.
We also offer an M.A. in Digital Content and an M.S. in Social Media Management. These degree programs were designed with your success in mind. While our Master of Arts in Digital Content degree focuses on the study, development, and mastery of digital content marketing, the master’s in social media management seeks to teach students how to use online media sites to produce data-driven results for corporations and small businesses alike. Both the M.A. in Digital Content and the M.S. in Social Media Management are backed by growing market demand and Liberty’s demonstrated track record of preparing graduates who impact the world.
At Liberty, our mission is to Train Champions for Christ. We don’t just train skilled communicators – we produce driven, principled pioneers who lead with grace, integrity, and grit.
