Social Media Masters
Is there any course out there?
(WORLD) I’m looking for a Postgraduate course (preferably a Masters) with a focus on social media and youth. Been searching round these past few months and found very few offerings which even come close (and those that do are too generic or old school).
The course must:
- have a focus on social media
- allow specialisms (e.g. youth)
- be ‘distance learning’ (as I work for a living you know)
- have great tutors who understand the importance of play and fun in the learning process
- not be old school (e.g. specifically requires a 15-20,000 work essay for end of course assignment—showing rather than telling is a much more salient way of proving understanding)
If you know of anything which ticks the boxes above or are aware of some institution which would be open to develop something like this then please, please, please contact me here.

We will be launching an MA in Social Media this year – subject to validation and the usual red tape. It should appear on the Mediacourses.com Postgraduate courses page within the next few months.
