Student research – good examples
The final assignment for the CIPR Diploma is a research project. Our students produce some fantastic work and we wanted to showcase some of it here:
- Festus Akinbusoye – “Determining the value of Public Relations to an Organisation: Beyond the “Excellence Approach””
- John Gannon – “Shaping excellent internal communication practices with middle managers in an international organisation”
- Paul Marinko – “To what extent is communications within English local government shaped around Grunig and Hunt’s two-way asymmetrical model?”
- James Ramsay – “Aspects of professionalism in European public relations: an exploration of issues affecting the professionalisation of the industry in Europe from a practitioner’s perspective?”
- Simon Wakeman – “What is the role of social media in UK local government communications?”
- Georgina Vincent – “How do membership organisations use communications to ensure their strategy and work programmes are member-driven?”
