Signature Academic Program
Digital Mass Media
As we prepare students for today’s interconnected, data-driven global economy, effective communication skills are ever more important.
Gulliver Prep’s Digital Mass Media Signature Academic Program offered at the Middle and Upper School levels, provides application of real-world skills through student-driven experiences in the areas of broadcasting, video, print, and online media platforms. This interdisciplinary program offers students opportunities to work in fast-paced, team-oriented, and deadline-driven environments. Students will take their experiences beyond the classroom as they work on projects for both internal and external clients. In addition, students who complete the program will have the opportunity to obtain professional industry certification.
