Focus Area: Public Relations/Organizational Communication
The Public Relations/Organizational Communication focus area is an interdisciplinary field where career opportunities exist in both the business and non-profit sectors. Public relations or organizational communication specialists provide both internal and external communication for the business/organization they represent and therefore need to have a strong understanding of the relationship between communication, business, and media. After graduation, you will be prepared to transfer to a four-year institution and pursue a career in public relations, corporate communication, image consulting, graphic design, media relations, promotions/sales, advertising, publicity, fund raising, publications/editing, technical writing, marketing, or management.
