Overview

What you’ll learn

Express your creativity in a variety of mediums and gain valuable career skills. You’ll have freedom to choose your own projects and develop a portfolio in filmmaking, music, web & graphic design, and/or professional and creative writing.

  • Develop your consciousness to improve creativity and learning ability
  • Specialize in up to four career tracks (filmmaking, music, design, or writing)
  • Master the latest technology & equipment
  • Apply your knowledge with hands-on internships
  • Refine your talents through positive encouragement and critique

Immersion in one course per month

At MUM you take one full-time course each month, instead of juggling 4-5 subjects at once. Called the block system, this helps you:

  • learn more without stress
  • give your full attention to each class
  • remember what you learn
  • go deeper into knowledge and projects

This structure improves creative focus and makes it easier to collaborate with your peers in the program.

Artistic, entrepreneurial community

Fairfield is Iowa’s center for arts and culture, with lots of opportunities for collaborations and internships. It’s been named Entrepreneurial Community of the Year by the State of Iowa.

Students regularly present their work at screenings, premieres, concerts, and exhibitions — both on campus and in the community.

Our Media and Communications professors are experienced and active in their fields — including the film, television, broadcasting, music, photography, design, and publishing industries.
