  • Develop student skills and understanding of digital technology that will open pathways to emerging careers that incorporate social media messaging and analysis, digital data analytics, digital content creation, and mobilization and communication strategy.
  • Connect students with practitioners and experts in an array of professions transformed by digital politics.
