The Division of Professional Studies department at UA Cossatot announces that a new Digital Media and Marketing degree will be available this fall. The new degree is the result of input from local business owners and the quickly changing way that businesses market their products as well as communities in which we live. UA Cossatot has also announced that students can complete the degree entirely online.

This new degree will be an associate of applied science degree, but it will also include stackable credentials for a certificate of proficiency and a technical certificate. The certificates and the degree can all be completed in less than two years. The associate’s degree requires 60 credit hours, the technical certificate requires 27, and the certificate of proficiency requires 12.

Students planning to transfer to a four-year university can also take courses within the Digital Media and Marketing degree to earn transferable credits at UA Cossatot before transferring.

Digital media and marketing is an essential investment for businesses moving into the next decade. UA Cossatot wants to give students more creative, business opportunities, provide more local, relevant industry training, and help other businesses gain a competitive edge.

This degree will provide a focus area on social media and advertising for local businesses. Classes offered this fall at UA Cossatot, in this program, include Introduction to Digital Media, Social Media Marketing, and Microcomputer Applications.
