A student will dig into the basics and beginnings of successful Public Relations and Social Media campaigns. Students will get exposure to PR and social media strategy, research, media engagement, influencer relations, client brainstorming, community management, creative writing, and learning to collaborate & network with professionals. This experience requires reliability, foundational knowledge of PR/media studies or digital marketing through a college/university program, and a passion for the travel, hospitality, and lifestyle industries.
