Located at Middle Tennessee State University, the world’s only College of Media & Entertainment—blending academics and industry to cultivate future leaders in Media Arts, Recording Industry & Journalism through innovation and hands-on learning. Though traditional media have been buffeted by digital technology, there’s more media being consumed around the world today than at any other time in histo
ry. Those four channels on a TV have been replaced by tens of thousands of content providers. So the rebooted College of Media and Entertainment will strive to give students the skills and insights they’ll need to engage, inform and entertain audiences on multiple platforms. That means learning to communicate effectively through words, audio and video. It also means coming to grips with change. The most important traits we can instill in our students is a receptivity to change and a comfort level with technology. While earlier generations left college with a pretty good sense of how their careers would unfold, today’s college students need to be able to say, "Bring it on.”
That will take confidence. And preparation. And a well-rounded education that prepares every student for both a profession and a rewarding life.
