Communications and digital media are more important now than ever before. As remote work becomes more commonplace, organizations must develop effective ways to maintain employee engagement and explore new digital communication channels to prevent information overload. Time spent on digital media accounted for 57.5 percent of adults’ daily media usage in 2020 and that figure is expected to reach 60.2 percent by 2022, according to eMarketer.
The online master’s in communications and digital media program from Pace University’s Dyson College of Arts and Sciences allows you to advance your skill set to take on complex challenges in communications and prepare for a variety of careers in a creative, dynamic industry. Learn from faculty members who have experience in media production, public relations, and other forms of business communication.
