Your future with a degree in Public Relations and Corporate Communications
Companies, authorities, institutions or organisations all need professional public relations to position and present themselves. This happens, on the one hand, by conveying information to the outside world via a wide variety of channels, and on the other, through internal communication. In this course, students learn how this works. Whether as a press spokesperson, PR editor or manager, graduates look forward to exciting and responsible tasks in a dynamic industry.
