Hi. Im currently majoring in journalism. I am required to pick an area of concentration (same as a minor) and I’m a little conflicted. I dont know yet if I actually want to have a career as a journalist, but after doing extensive research, I have decided that it is a good major that I will enjoy and that IS employable in fields other than journalism. (YAY!). Possible minors:
English: seems good except I’m worried that it might be redundant to do an english minor since I’m majoring in journalism.
Anthropology: I like learning about different cultures
Public relations: more writing but I dont really want a career as some kind of a professional manipulator or whatever.
Humanities: classes about romans, greeks, etc… sorta like philosophy & history combined.
Basically I just want to hear from anyone who has studied any of these subjects and tell me how they have enhanced your career, life, etc..
At the end of the day, I know that I must make the decision for myself.
I’m looking for colleges with a good public relations program. I don’t really know which ones are superior. I have a 3.7 GPA and all the other good stuff so I don’t think I would have a problem getting into many schools. Please write any colleges with public relations and if you can tell me about them, it would be great (: thanks.
what qualifications do i need from college to work for a magazine in public relations.. like setting up events, going to fashion shoots ect and would it be best to get an apprenticeship after i have my qualifications? i was thinking of taking media.. but i dont know what to do fashion wise either? as no colleges i want to go to do a fashion course. thankyou x
