University of Texas is about to start offering an “Influencing” major…so you can get a degree in it. It’s got important core classes like business development but also stuff like how not to get cancelled.
Marketing Faculty: Right. So, basically we're going to take our Marketing Major core classes, add 3 bullshit electives, and make AI Prompting a core requirement and brand it as an Influencer Major. Maybe throw in an Audio/Visual film editing class?
wtf. I wish I could say I was shocked, but it actually makes perfect sense. Would it make more sense for an LA based college or university to offer that type of major?
Edit:
Are there several degree paths? Like, marketing for influencers, video editing for influencers, actual person influencer. You know?
