Program Gives Students Advertising Experience

NPR | By Noah Adams

Published May 14, 2007 at 12:00 PM CDT

Virginia Commonwealth University in Richmond, Va., is offering a unique program for graduate students in advertising.

A two-year program at the Adcenter allows students to learn in an advertising agency setting, where they work on theoretical campaigns and marketing issues.

The teachers come from the advertising world, and most of the students have had some work experience. The innovative program is not cheap — tuition is $40,000.
