Public Relations (PR) is about managing information between organisations and stakeholders, individuals and the public, or a combination.
You will undertake a foundation year covering all core business disciplines, giving you a solid understanding of issues facing organisations today.
From your second year at the University of Wollongong, you will begin your major in Public Relations.
During your degree, you will execute a PR campaign with your peers for a not-for-profit organisation; past organisations include St John Ambulance NSW and In2Uni.
You will also undertake a final-year capstone subject that lets you apply everything you have learned in collaboration with students from other disciplines.
Plus, you have the option of applying for an internship to gain valuable experience whilst receiving credit towards your degree.
The degree covers a variety of subjects, including:
Business communication, PR concepts, PR writing, advertising and creative strategies, digital marketing, corporate identity and branding, marketing communications, and innovative PR campaigns.
Working with some of Australia's largest public relations companies, you will be able to see firsthand where your career could take you.
After completing the Bachelor of Business (Public Relations), you may enrol in a postgraduate business Master’s degree and be eligible for up to 4 subject credits, reducing your master’s degree to 1 year.
This degree trajectory means you can graduate with bachelor’s and master’s degrees in just 4 years.
