| Syllabus: | Public Relations (Professional Practice) 393 is a compulsory internship unit within the PR stream, which is part of the accreditation requirements by the Public Relations Institute of Australia. The major requirement is for students to spend a minimum of one month full-time, or part-time equivalent, working with an employer in a public relations capacity. One month is defined for the purposes of this unit as 20 working days. The work experience may be undertaken during the semester, during the break prior to the semester in which the student is enrolled in the unit, or by a combination of the two. Students will be required to prepare a detailed report on their experiences including samples of work undertaken, an analysis of the organisation and the role of public relations within it, discussion of key public relations issues encountered, recommendations to the employer on the organisation's public relations policies and practices, and an up-to-date curriculum vitae including reference to the completed internship. |
