The most diverse degree of any profession
PR degrees are arguably the most diverse of all professions. Almost all large and small companies and organizations today have a department specializing in branding, marketing or building public image. In Vietnam, the number of operating businesses is about 375,000. If each of these businesses only recruits 1 PR staff, the human resources for this industry will still be seriously lacking. Moreover, we are currently lacking well-trained and professional PR staff. Therefore, if you graduate from a regular PR - Communications major at universities, you will be very "valuable".
You will be extremely “valuable” if you graduate from a PR - Communication major at an international university. In fact, studying abroad in a PR - Communication major is not too difficult, because scholarships for this major are very diverse.
