Students in Public Relations program develop the skills to build goodwill for a business or organization’s stakeholders and audience. Students conduct market research, analyze audiences, think strategically, and identify publicity opportunities. Through real-world service-learning projects; informational interviews; and internships, students start growing their professional network.
We offer intense, hands-on, service-learning aspects in our public relations coursework. Experienced professors will encourage you to get involved in the many public events on campus and off campus.
With campus so close to downtown Minneapolis and St. Paul, students can take advantage of opportunities in Minnesota’s thriving public relations industries. We partner with Twin Cities companies to offer internships for you to gain real-world experience.
Unlike larger schools where your professor may not even know your name, our professors can get to know you on a personal level. They individually advise you for your personal path to success.
There are a variety of career and academic pathways that begin with a degree in public relations.
You will develop an international mindset and establish strong written and verbal communication skills.
