Master of Arts in Publishing

Students are given a broad scope view of the Publishing Industry via courses taught by publishing professionals and experts in their fields. In addition to the ten required courses, students will take an additional five courses in the aspect of publishing that best suits their interests. Courses will be taught in traditional classrooms, as well as online in both synchronized and synchronized sessions; special projects can occur in day and evening hours. The required course list contains seven courses specific to the Publishing program, and three by other disciplines (Law, Business, and Digital Design). The elective list contains three courses specific to the program, and then a wide-range of courses from Communication, Visual Arts and Design, Business, and Law. Independent Projects are encouraged and are limited only by the student's imagination or area of interest. Opportunities abound at Drexel itself, as well as many other area publishers with whom we've built relationships.
