Our focus is based on one thing: making sure our students are prepared to compete in not just today’s media, but also tomorrow’s. WMI opens the door to amazing opportunities meant specifically for graduates.
Internships
Our staff places each student individually based on your goals, ambitions and qualifications. WMI has been placing media interns for two decades, and has earned the trust of employers, opening doors that otherwise would be shut.
Seminars
Throughout the program, students will participate in a weekly seminar. In this evening course, you will learn the ins and outs of the professional world – how to negotiate a salary, introduce yourself to a new contact, and give the best first impression.
Networking
It’s one of the hardest things to get while in school, but one of the most important things you’ll need entering the job market: a strong network. At WMI, we’ll not only set you up with trade organization memberships and a calendar of nightly networking events, we’ll be with you every step of the way.
Mentorship
Gain guidance from top professionals in your field through our mentorship program. Speak with industry leaders who are here to help you succeed. Whether it’s which career path to explore or how to follow in their footsteps, these mentors will be there to answer your questions throughout your entire experience.
In the last two years, a dozen graduates from WMI’s undergrad program have landed media jobs as a direct result of the program, including at top organizations like:
