Media, Writing, and Communications Certificate in Storytelling
Diploma Description
Great writing, whether for podcasts, the screen, the stage, or the page, begins with great stories. But the power of telling stories and the demand for good storytellers is not limited to professional writers. Success in nearly every industry, from politics and design to marketing and finance, hinges less on the “messaging” of facts than on the ability to tell a good story. The Certificate in Storytelling, which can be taken fully online. is designed to provide a flexible, comprehensive approach to narrative that will distinguish participants working in a wide range of industries and media. Creatives at all levels will gain the skills and experience they need to improve their craft and publish their work; professionals and candidates in other fields will develop a set of highly desirable skills that will set them apart.
The certificate is awarded to students who successfully complete three required courses and three elective courses from the list below. Courses from other Media, Writing, and Communications certificates may be applied as substitutions pending advance review and approval by the academic department. The certificate must be completed within three years of taking the first certificate-eligible course.
