Now You Can Get A Masters In Social Media

Ok, this social media business may have gone too far. Birmingham City University is offering a one year masters degree for £4,400 (around $6,230.4). The classes will teach students how to use social media sites like Facebook, Twitter, and Bebo, as well as set up blogs and publish pod casts.

While social media’s an important skill for anyone in marketing looking to survive the coming print media Armageddon, this new skill set changes quickly and is best served by classes, not a stand alone degree. Jon Hickman, the course convener, outlines his case for the degree below.
