July 28/August 1 – enrollment available to participate – not much time left
Relationships between an organization (corporation, government or nongovernmental agency, nonprofit, small business, public relations firm, private consultant) and specific stakeholders are constantly changing. Every day and every minute, the interaction of global communication and economic dynamics and digital technologies requires monitoring and proactive or reactive responses—what’s now called global public relations.
Today’s business decision-makers and management scholars know global relationships with stakeholders are key not only to improve the effectiveness of the management decision-making processes, but also to ensure achievement of their global business goals.
If you share or want to know more about this global view, enroll in this NYU summer intensive course to immerse yourself in the evolving global public relations conversation. You will experience five intense and challenging days in New York City, the world’s capital of media and public relations. Two seasoned and highly experienced graduate-level professors (see biographies below) will conduct the classes, along with leading multinational agency and corporate practitioners at firms such as BNY Mellon, Burson-Marsteller, IBM, Edelman, General Electric, Ketchum, Morgan Stanley, Pfizer, Roche and others. Public relations scholars from around the world plus distinguished NYU graduate public relations alumni from Asia Pacific, Africa, Europe and the Americas also will teach you what truly defines global public relations today and how it differs from traditional domestic practices. A week-long practicum-style case-study project for a real-time client will allow you to apply what you learn each day.
This intensive course, the first of its kind, will help you to identify stakeholders; to explore communication and cultural alignment (internal/external, time/space, digital/real, and corporate/marketing); to understand multichannel, multistakeholder integrated reporting, advocacy and dialogue; to set objectives; to pretest and post-test activities and to evaluate and measure results.You will learn from and experience the content and teaching methods of the NYU-SCPS Master of Science Program in Public Relations and Corporate Communication (NYU PR&CC), a two-year degree considered among the best and most sought-after in the world.
