About the course.

Public relations, or "PR" as it is commonly called, is a one-year program for you if you want to learn to change how people see the world around them, for example the attitude toward a brand or person, or an opinion on a specific issue, with the help of the right communication. The program suits you if you are interested in media and current trends, express yourself easily, and are drawn to networking and nurturing different kinds of contacts. We work a lot in groups and jointly explore creative solutions to realistic challenges.

During your year in the program you develop your strategic and creative ability in order to prepare for the varied everyday life of a PR practitioner. You learn everything from publicity work and PR project management to PR creation and opinion building. You are trained in practice to work on assignments for different brands in realistic projects, and we continuously focus on creating PR-driven ideas and strategies that build trust and spark curiosity among people. As a PR student you learn to understand the world around you, in both small and large ways, and to turn this into insights that form the basis for creative, smart, PR-driven ideas. We constantly scan for exciting topics to take as a starting point, everything from politics to popular culture. The program includes an internship period, and during those weeks you will learn even more about what the PR profession involves and which type of role and workplace suits you in the future. After completing the program, a diploma and a certificate with individual course grades are issued.
