Public Relations Minor
The public relations minor provides students with a foundational understanding of how public relations professionals manage relationships between organizations and their stakeholders, and manage the reputations of those organizations and brands.
Courses focus on developing skills in writing, strategic planning, relationship management and research that can be applied in any field – from business to government to entertainment and nonprofit.
This minor is an excellent complement to majors in business, advertising, journalism, communications, marketing or other related fields.
