Course aim

To consolidate the knowledge and skills obtained by students in introductory and intermediate courses in a strategic communication context.

Course content

Students will develop an understanding of the integration, planning and management of key communication skills in an organisational context. The planning will be informed by organisational goals and extensive research and analysis of the situation, organisation, issues and publics. Advanced skills will be developed in the setting of communication goals and objectives, the development of strategies, tactics, budgets, and schedules, and the formation of measurement and evaluation plans. Consideration of relevant ethical, legal and social issues will be required, which will require students to apply and integrate theoretical knowledge and understanding in a practical context.
