Public Relations, B.A.

Academic Advising Resources

The Public Relations program combines traditional courses in writing and public relations theory with courses invoking critical thought about the pervasive impact of social media within the business environment. Students will not only explore the demands of the global economy but will address issues impacting the local community and the non-profit venue as a result of our experiential learning philosophy.
