Overview

You've likely been a digital media consumer for years. You know how quickly we've moved from static to responsive websites; from Facebook to Instagram to TikTok; from cable television to Hulu. What's next? And how do you use the existing and emerging media channels to reach the audiences living on them? West Virginia University's completely online master's degree in Digital Marketing Communications gives you the strategy and the skills — in just one year. You’ll learn how to create a dialogue with today's modern audience that builds community around a brand or organization. It's all about building trust and providing customers with long-term value so that they become advocates who bring you more customers.

Employers want to know that you have both the strategy and the skill. Throughout the Digital program, certifications in topics like Google Analytics and Tag Manager and Facebook Blueprint are part of the curriculum. It's an added layer of proof that you have the skills to execute a digital marketing strategy.

When you’re exploring ideas, technologies and media that don't even exist yet, you need pioneers who know the terrain and are experts in guiding you to the right outcomes. Our faculty are those pioneers. Not only are they digital marketing practitioners, they are well connected to the leaders in this industry. Together they bring you the latest in this constantly evolving field, giving you the value of their knowledge and the gift of their mentorship.
