Career Management
Developing a successful professional life
requires:
- a realistic analysis of the audio industry
- the establishment of clear goals
- the acquisition of appropriate knowledge
and skills
- an awareness of employment opportunities
and employer expectations.
This course systematically examines these matters.
The intent is to adequately prepare our graduates for meeting
the challenges of effectively establishing a career.
Topical lectures, research assignments, numerous
career profile guest lectures by successful industry representatives,
and client/studio intern settings are used to advance the professionalism
of every student in the program.
