30 jobs in the PR and marketing world

Choosing what you’ll study in college is a major life decision; selecting the best school for your chosen path can be equally as important.

For those with a knack for building relationships, a finger on the pulse of what’s happening in the world and a passion for writing, public relations could be the perfect career.

With so many colleges offering degrees in communications, though, it can be hard to determine which one best suits your individual needs and goals. Job placement rate, course rigor, education, financial aid and yearly tuition costs are all factors that can go into making this crucial decision.

College Choice shared its “30 best public relations degrees” list to help make your selection process a little bit easier.

It shares how it identified these colleges:

To find the best public relations degrees we first examined every program in the U.S. We narrowed our list by incorporating crucial key factors, such as reputation and retention. The latter reflects student satisfaction. From there we also looked at tuition rates and average graduate salaries to determine the return on investment.
