Hey guys! So I'm really into public relations and I want my college experience to be enriched with a focus on African American culture and history. I'm looking into HBCUs and wondering if anyone knows which ones have a strong PR program. Any alumni or current students who can weigh in on their experiences or knowledge would be mega appreciated!
Hey there! Studying PR at Howard University can be a phenomenal experience. Howard is not only a leading HBCU but is also well-respected in the field of communications. Their School of Communications offers various opportunities like internships and workshops with established professionals, which can really give students a leg up in the industry.
Plus, thanks to being in Washington D.C., students at Howard have access to a multitude of organizations and agencies—the city provides a rich environment for building a strong network. Overall, it's a great mix of academic rigor and practical experience, so definitely consider putting Howard on your list!
Good luck with your search!
