A UNIVERSITY is offering a master's degree in Facebook, MySpace and Twitter but it will cost students more than $9000.
For £4400 (49075) Birmingham City University in the UK will teach students how to blog, set up podcasts and make the most of the social media websites for marketing.

"It's not for freaks or IT geeks. The tools learned on this course will be accessible to many people," convenor Jon Hickman told The Daily Mail.

"It will definitely appeal to students looking to go into professions including journalism and PR."

But sudent Jamie Waterman, said it would be a waste of the university's resources.

"It's of no interest to me whatsoever. Virtually all of the content of this course is so basic it can be self-taught," he said.
