Public Communication
Module aim
The aim of the course is to introduce the theoretical and practical aspects, issues and applications of public communication.
Module description
Public Communication course aims to introduce personal branding, corporate communication, communication with clients and internal communication, the students who have chosen studies of engineering sciences, computer sciences, technology sciences, mathematics sciences. Students learn how to present themselves and their ideas, better speak in public, to make good and convincing points, to better use the internet and social media for their professional goals, also to understand cross-cultural communication. The importance of media channels, messages and communication to target audiences are also introduced in the course. Through practical tasks for personal branding, students will learn how to adopt public ethics, protocol standards. In this course an approach of learning by doing is combined with theoretical analysis and students’ self-reflection. The practical part of the course consists of active participation in discussions during different exercises, case studies as well as preparation and presentation of public speeches and presentations.
Participation in at least 60% of the scheduled exercises is mandatory
