• Mentor students in building their own creator brands — from concept to monetization.
• Content Creation & Practice
• Actively produce content (short-form video, graphics, campaign creatives) as teaching material and case studies.
• Collaborate with the university’s media team to showcase SEMCE’s work on social platforms.
• Develop mini-campaigns with students to simulate real-world creator economy workflows.
• Curriculum & Innovation
• Design studio-based courses where students create, edit, publish, and analyze content.
