The
effective public relations professional of the future will need
to go beyond established, traditional communications skills.
To do so, he or she must acquire knowledge and experience in
strategic planning, issue analysis, research, finance and budgeting,
negotiation, facilitation, and conflict resolution. |
| |
The Independent Study Degree Program in Communications Management
provides the professional with at least five years of
experience in public relations or a related field an
opportunity to achieve mastery of these areas while advancing
as a decision maker, manager, and counselor in a challenging
global economy.
