Department of Advertising + Public Relations

The AD+PR Department at Michigan State came into being in 1958 and at the time was one of three dedicated advertising and public relations programs in the country. Since that day, we’ve never looked back and we’re just getting started.

Over the past 64 years, the department has been consistently ranked by numerous research and accreditation studies as being in the “top tier” of undergraduate advertising programs, research productivity, and graduate studies.
