This Diplome d'etudes superieures specialisees (DESS) in Public Relations at Universite Laval is a 30-credit graduate diploma designed as complementary training for professionals whose first degree was in a field other than public relations. It is typically completed in about one year of full-time study across two consecutive 15-credit sessions, building communications competencies sought in public-relations practice. Up to 15 credits of prior learning may be recognized toward the diploma. Courses are offered during both day and evening hours on weekdays, with some courses available at a distance, combining in-person and remote formats. Admission is offered for the Fall and Winter terms. The diploma suits graduates from other disciplines who want formal public-relations training added to an existing degree.
