The winter quarter is an especially dynamic one for MSLCE students. Courses in Economics, Business Models, Media Markets, Digital TV, and Public Policy challenged students to expand their knowledge base while also creating new opportunities for personal and professional growth. In addition to their studies, MSLCE students kicked off their spring quarter by traveling to New York City, Los Angeles and San Francisco in order to further immerse themselves in the inner-workings of leading creative enterprises and to connect in-person with leaders and innovators based in these cities. Students met with professionals from Amblin Entertainment, Brooklyn Museum, Facebook, LucasFilm, CAA, Second Stage Theater, Tribeca Film Festival, Berkeley Repertory Theatre, and many, many more. You can learn about these experiences directly from MSLCE students in the following pages.
Many MSLCE students are currently preparing to start their summer internships and others are getting ready to dive fully into their self-designed summer initiatives. I so look forward to sharing news about students’ experiences with you. To hear about the most current MSLCE news and happenings, please visit our website – creative.northwestern.edu.
