What type of people study public relations?
This is an impossible question to answer. Public relations is a subject which appeals to a broad sweep of people. Usually, our students range in age from 20s to 50s. Their backgrounds are very mixed – in 2003, for example, we had a paediatrician, an archaeologist and a Senator. We also had secretaries, nurses, hotel workers, teachers, civil servants, managers – in fact, just about everyone. Once you meet the entry standard (in terms of age and educational qualification) you are free to join the course.
