Liberal Arts Public Relations BA Hons with Integrated Foundation

A liberal arts degree gives you the freedom to focus on the subjects that most interest you. You’ll concentrate on a major area of study while maintaining a breadth of learning spanning the arts, humanities and social sciences.  

Liberal Arts with Integrated Foundation incorporates an extra year of study to prepare you for your undergraduate degree. Once you have completed the foundation year, you will progress directly on to the three-year BA (Hons) Liberal Arts (Public Relations) degree.  

The Public Relations Major

The Public Relations Major offers a thorough grounding in the history, theories and developments of the rapidly expanding industry.  

You will learn how to work effectively across the global multimedia communications industries, developing skills in writing, media relations and crisis management.   

Practical projects will enable you to apply your skills to real-life case studies, training you to respond effectively to rapid political, cultural and social changes.  

Elective modules will help you understand the breadth of this discipline and also give you a broad skillset.   

Options to learn a language and study abroad at one of our international partners will help expand your learning and global outlook.   

PR is a vital function within many industries. This Major will open doors to industries as diverse as international business, charities, sports, travel, arts and culture and luxury brands.
