College’s Brand+Integrated Communication graduate program: apply before April 1st

BICTwit_0
BIC is a two-year, 36 credit portfolio-driven master’s program at City College that uniquely combines 3 critical disciplines (Creative, Management/Planning, and Public Relations) in a collaborative and cross-disciplinary environment. While students focus on their track of choice, they are always involved with the other two.
For more information about the BIC program, please visit www.ccny.cuny.edu/bic and the BIC blog at www.bic-ccny.info. In the STUDENTS section of the BIC site, you’ll see where students come from, what undergraduate degrees they have, as well as a list of where members of their first graduating class ended up: BBDO, TBWA, Rabin Martin, Ketchum, Y&R, Tribal, GREY, DDB, SS+K, etc.
The deadline to apply for Fall 2016 is April 1st 2016. Step-by-step instructions on the application process can be found on the Admissions website:www.ccny.cuny.edu/admissions/graduate-studies.cfm. But, if interested, I strongly suggest you connect with Prof. Gerardo Blumenkrantz, the Creative Track director, who can tell you about any possible extensions, etc
