Bachelor of Science [B.S] Public Relations
Public relations is a strategic communication process that builds mutually beneficial relationships between organizations (business, government, nonprofit, individual) and their public's. PR practitioners develop and deliver key messages through traditional and social media channels. The program provides a well-rounded education in public relations that emphasizes research and analysis, creative development and the relationship of all media to PR in both public and private sectors.
The hands-on curriculum reflects the importance of strategic critical thinking, research for understanding target audiences, writing, design expertise and creativity. Students create and execute a PR campaign in a senior-level capstone course that serves a client organization in the community. Demand for PR interns is high, and qualified students may elect to participate in the internship program to acquire professional experience in South Florida and other regions.
