The CIPR-accredited BA (Hons) Business and Public Relations at Liverpool John Moores University is the ideal preparation for a successful career in public relations and offers exciting placement opportunities.

The Business and Public Relations degree will prepare you for a career in a public relations role within corporate communications, internal communications, event management or areas relating to online public relations, such as search engine optimisation and social media strategy development.

This Chartered Institute of Public Relations accredited degree gives you an appreciation of traditional business functions which work closely with aspects of the PR function in organisations such as marketing, combined with the study of the tactics, tools and strategies of PR and communication management.  Practitioners deliver sessions and guest lectures so you have the opportunity to learn about real issues and to make the link between theory and practice.

You will join the final year (level 6) of the existing BA Business and PR programme and graduate with the same course title as those who have completed the three year BA (Hons) Business and PR degree.

You could find yourself working in a wide variety of PR settings, from PR departments in large multi-national organisations, to PR agencies, search engine optimisation companies and specialised event management companies. Some of our students have graduated with the confidence and ideas to set up their own successful businesses.
