Overview

Master of Strategic Communication (Extension)

The Master of Strategic Communication (Extension) at UTS provides advanced public communication practice studies. 

It is relevant for graduates seeking a career in corporate, government, political, health, organisational or marketing communication, advertising, or public relations and for communication professionals seeking to advance their careers to the senior level. 

The course includes theoretical and practical perspectives on up-to-date issues such as audience insights through ethical data collection and analysis, digital media communication, and strategic communication informed by research and evaluation.

The world of public communication is changing rapidly through digitalisation, 'big data' analysis, new platforms and channels, and shifting attitudes and concerns. 

These are leading to changing practices, challenges, and new ethical concerns. 

The UTS Master of Strategic Communication is based on the latest research taught by senior academic researchers and leading industry professionals.
