Why be ordinary when you can be exceptional?
It’s hard to beat the comprehensive, specialized knowledge you gain with Franklin’s M.S. in Marketing & Communication (MCM) Program.
An MBA with a marketing concentration is common. But a graduate program that’s devoted completely to intertwining marketing and communication is rare.
Entirely marketing and communication
If you look around, you’ll find that most MBA marketing concentration programs give you 20% marketing, 80% business. And you’ll also see that while most programs often take as long as two years to complete, Franklin’s MCM only takes 16 months. More importantly, earning this distinctive degree means you will learn more of what you need to know.
Pay less and finish faster
With affordable tuition rates and a fast-paced learning environment, you can finish your degree faster and pay less along the way.
