Overview

Key facts

Public Relations at University of Miami focuses on the free placement of messages in the media through media releases, editorial content, and promotion.

Classroom requirements reflect the importance of research, new technology, and the relationship of all media (electronic, print, and related technology) to public relations in both the public and private sectors. Students create and execute PR campaigns as part of their course work. They have the opportunity to work within a professional environment through internships and practicum programs.

Mission

The Public Relations Program mission is to prepare professional communicators who understand and can demonstrate the use of theory, research, planning and evaluation in effective public relations practice. We are committed to building students’ ability to apply ethical principles to decision-making and to perceive each communication and its intended audience holistically, based on an understanding of and appreciation for cultural and other differences. We also seek to nurture students’ analytic and creative skills with the goal of graduating insightful, resourceful citizens of a global society.
