The educational needs of media organisations today are broad ranging. They require relevant and transformational learning experiences that will empower stakeholders to reimagine the media ecosystem, locally and globally. Accordingly, industries are looking to universities to help find solutions that will support media viability into the future.

The Executive Masters in Media Leadership & Innovation, (EMMLI), is a 24-month MBA styled programme designed to develop leadership skills to advance & convey vision & strategy. EMMLI fosters innovation and entrepreneurship so participants leave braced to commence new businesses, or transform existing workspaces in response to changing market needs.

In order to address these issues, the following four pillars form the foundations of EMMLI:
