Public Relations and Digital Media Major

Create an inspiring image for millions of followers. Write persuasive content so people will take action. And, shape an organization’s image and brand while spreading its message with an ethical and relevant approach. At Saint Mary’s University of Minnesota, learn how to strategically use the power of words and graphics to communicate messages across various channels. Our curriculum focuses on effectively designing multimedia communication campaigns, writing, producing, and editing content for social media and news releases. You’ll also gain an understanding of basic journalism, public speaking, and graphic design skills — allowing you to pursue a wide range of careers showcasing your skills.

From powerful content to inspiring images, businesses and organizations need to tell their story. You’re a storyteller. Share a brand’s image with the world through content marketing, graphic design, multimedia, and social media. Learn to see the world form a new perspective and show the world yours.

At Saint Mary’s, our Lasallian Catholic values guide everything we do. As part of our community in Winona, you’ll learn these values by seeing them in action every day. In the public relations and digital media major, you’ll evaluate ethical elements of a communication scenario, articulate ethical dimensions of communication, and respect diverse perspectives and the ways they influence communication. You’ll learn and incorporate these values into your career to be an ethical leader.
