Public Relations Emphasis in Communication Studies

Public Relations is one of the most dynamic professions in the world. Today effective businesses devote considerable time, energy, and resources to achieve a positive public image. That's why they hire public relations experts. Because our instructors have practical experience, their teaching combines the theoretical with the real-live aspects of public relations.

As a student you will study with faculty in some of the best mediated classrooms available using a variety of technologies including the most current computer hardware and software. Much of your learning will involve hands-on experience.  

Public Relations combines journalism, general and organizational communication, broadcasting, advertising and art courses into the right blend of experiences necessary for you to pursue a public relations career. At FHSU you can prepare for a wide range of job responsibilities and learn how to plan internal and external communication. Complement your practical experience with an internship at a public relations firm or corporate public relations department for a well-rounded education.
