Getting a Master’s Degree From the Award-winning Miami Ad School

Location is incredibly important if you’re harboring a dream of media work. Florida International University has partnered with Miami Ad School to bring you a program that can help you develop your talents in an urban, creative environment.

The FIU-MAS program is proud to have produced students with a great reputation in the advertising world. We know what the successful students have in common aside from a great work ethic, and a true commitment to their dream. We know we can offer a few of those characteristics to you via our program.

One of the most important things you can send an employer is your portfolio…

You Can Build an Outstanding Portfolio Working with Miami Ad School 

You’ll hear this phrase often in the creative fields and in life in general: don’t tell me what you can do, show me what you have done. That’s the key to breaking the trap that so many young people encounter after they graduate. You need the experience to get a job, but you need a job to get experience. If you can demonstrate that you already have a body of work, you will stand out among myriad empty resumes with the exact same degree as yours.

With FIU in partnership with Miami Ad School, you will have extensive opportunities and guidance in creating the best portfolio of both creative and professional work for you. You’ll get a chance to flex your creative muscles while the risks aren’t as high as when you’re already working for an agency. You can show off our talent and work ethic to employers, and develop your capacity to work with other people in a collaborative environment.

Speaking of networking…

Develop Important Contacts At FIU & Miami Ad School 

Reputation and contacts are everything when it comes to hiring decisions. Contacts are the bread, butter, and lifeblood of a career. When you study at FIU and Miami Ad School, you will be near one of the great cities of the world, and electrical hub of media work, Miami.

It will happen naturally as you make friends and meet people here. There are endless activities and groups if you’re an introvert who prefers some context to an encounter as well. A familiar name, especially if you put in a sincere effort during your time at FIU and MAS, can make all the difference when an employer is holding up your resume right next to someone else’s.
