Uga Public Affairs Communications

Public affairs communications is a rapidly growing field just looking for a place to take hold and grow young professionals armed with the skills necessary for careers in public policy, politics and advocacy. It is a specialized communications skill set aimed at educating, driving or changing public opinion around a public policy, legislation, political candidates or issues. Grady College students now have the opportunity to master these skills through classroom study and experiential learning at both the UGA Athens campus and through the new Grady@DC program in the heart of our nation’s capitol. Together with our partners at UGA’s School of Public and International Affairs, we’re poised to break new ground and inspire the next generation of public affairs communications professionals.
