As with the other mobile app development platforms, these fields are typically too new for degree programs. You will find other educational opportunities out there, there are classes, books, screencasts in iPhone, PalmOS, Android, Blackberry, etc. development just a google away.

There are things like the Graduate degree program Tisch Interactive Telecommunications Program at NYU. The work produced there often has a mobile spin to it.

Here's a class syllabus for Mobile Me(dia), for example, though I'm not sure if that class is specifically an ITP one.

In California, you could look to Center for Research in Computing and the Arts, which I think has somewhat similar aims.

To look for other schools doing Android development courses, you could try a search like: "android development" site:.edu. Fair number of folks with classes at least: University of California, Carnegie Mellon, Columbia, Temple University, and many others.

Update

A bit of googling finds Master's Degree Programme in Mobile Technology and Business at University of Jyväskylä in Finland, which seems rather closely related to, if not exactly an answer to your question.

That's just too specific. You can do a Masters degree in C.S. and take mobile programming classes and do your Masters project or thesis on mobile programming and even work with an adviser and do some research at the Masters level.
