Help Shape the Future through Public Relations

Do you have a passion for writing? A talent for communicating? Then PR could be your chosen career path.

In the technologically and sophisticated global society that we currently live in, the function of establishing and maintaining open and effective communications between corporations, governments, organizations and their publics demands qualified, talented, highly trained public relations practitioners. Practitioners who are disciplined, intelligent, and know their business inside out - from planning to program execution; from identifying trends to recognizing their impact; from counselling on social issues to motivating organizational change; from creating strategies to exploiting a wide range of tactics; from writing to orchestrating campaigns and events.

Does that sound like something you would like to do with your life?
Maybe you’d like to acquire or polish your PR skills in order to manage the new challenges in your current working environment. Maybe you’re an entrepreneur who’s looking to add to your existing skills mix. Or maybe you’re a graduate of another discipline. Whichever you are, this program could well be for you.

The program is intensive and fast paced … but make no mistake, it’s also thorough. Lots of experienced guest speakers, who are experts in their field. Lots of hands-on personal attention. A wireless notebook learning and computing environment and down the road …

Guaranteed Career Satisfaction
Within the various media industries, public relations ranks as one of the highest in job fulfillment. If you’re looking for career satisfaction, enjoy multi-tasking, get excited at finding creative solutions for today’s problems and want to be a part of one of the fastest growing professions in the world, then taking this course is a step toward that future. Not just your future, but also the future of how we all communicate with each other.

If Time is an Issue
In class time currently takes three days a week for 28 weeks. This allows those in full time jobs or entrepreneurs to keep working while pursuing their PR studies. It also allows other students to do volunteer PR work and/or have part-time jobs.

If You are a Laurier Journalism Student
The Mohawk Public Relations program is embedded into your four-year journalism degree program. In your third year, you will have the option of taking the PR Program at Mohawk.
