#172: Getting a Master's In Strategic Brand Communication at University of Illinois

Will a Master's degree help you break into advertising? Will it help you thrive in advertising long-term? What about portfolio school? Or what about an MBA? These are some of the questions Shachar Meron and Richard Pieczynski answer in this episode. I decided the Master's in Strategic Brand Communications was the perfect plan for my career. Shachar is the program's academic director, and Rich is a lecturer for the program. I also wrote a more in-depth blog on our website, but this episode will clarify some important questions about higher education. And to clarify upfront, this is not a one-sided conversation. A Master's might not be for you at all. But you should be equipped with all the knowledge about furthering your career development.
