To be offered in the April intake, the course is designed to introduce students to various areas of creative writing and communications in a range of creative print, online and mobile media that reflect the diversity and scope of today’s practice.
“Communications has always played an integral role in shaping the views of target markets. The rapid growth of the industry sees an increasing demand for PR practitioners who are well-versed on verbal and written communication skills,” says School of Liberal Arts dean Dr Ding Eng Na.
“With social networks, digital media and online communities redefining the way communications are carried out, it is imperative for companies to have well-planned, well-coordinated and well-executed PR campaigns to achieve their organisational goals.
“This requires one to have the ability to multitask and to have a good level of organisation and planning skills.
“The innovative curriculum covers elements of strategic writing, critical writing, ethics, crisis management and communications law.
“The programme is customised to industry trends and engages students to apply new methods and technologies when implementing any effective Public Relations campaign plan.
“Students who want to pursue a career in Public Relations should have good inter-personal relations skills and be interested in a wide range of subjects.
