Master of Fine Arts in Advertising Online

Program Description

The MFA in Advertising is designed to provide the graduate candidate with expertise in directing a full advertising campaign from concept to finish, including market research, strategy, copywriting, art direction and presentation. As Art Directors, Copywriters, Production or Freelance Artists, for print, websites, TV and radio, our graduate candidates focus on establishing themselves as creative communicators capable of formulating carefully planned strategies, concepts and executions in both traditional and new media.

The advertising curriculum is completed in the graduate candidate's Final Project, a competitive portfolio that demonstrates a professional-level mastery of advertising principles.

This year AAU Advertising students have won more awards than any other school. 2 Print Clios, 1 TV Clio, 1 Print Andy, 3 S.F. Show Silvers, 1 S.F. Show Merit and a Kodak/CMYK National TV Commercial winner to date.
