Licenciatura en Gestión de Medios

Media Management majors study how to lead, supervise, and motivate employees in the media industry. Program professors are skilled teachers whose backgrounds include academic and professional achievement at the highest levels. The curriculum covers marketing, sales, distribution, programming, and management for the media industry. Students learn about the inner workings of media companies such as radio, television, and digital media. Outside the classroom, students are encouraged to become involved in student media organizations where there are hands-on opportunities in management, marketing, sales, and production. Students are also encouraged to complete internships at the department’s many internship partners. Interns not only learn “on the job” but also begin to establish themselves in the industry.

Middle Tennessee State University has been named one of the best places to earn an undergraduate degree in the nation by The Princeton Review, which called it “a go-to choice for those wishing to receive a quality and affordable education.”

In past years, MTSU has been included in the review’s list of top schools in the Southeast. The university remains on the regional list by virtue of its inclusion on the review’s top national list. Added Provost Mark Byrnes, the university’s chief academic officer, “This reflects the hard work of our faculty and staff in helping our students succeed, as well as the almost $1 billion in improvements and new construction put forward on our campus.”
