Dang Huong Thao (PR-K8 student)
![]() | In the first year, PR was not my only choice. But in the second year, I decided to keep my study results at Foreign Trade University to wholeheartedly pursue PR at (Dai Nam University). The specialized subjects created real interest for me. After 2 years of studying, I felt that my choice was right. From a shy, timid student , I was elected class president by my friends, and received scholarships from the school every semester. I was also chosen to attend the Party Training class last April. |
![]() | Ho Thi Thanh Men (PR Student – 06) Many other professions have a high unemployment rate, so I feel extremely lucky to have chosen PR. PR is not only a passion and hobby, but it also gives me job opportunities while I am still in school. Right from my second and third years, I have been working part-time at media companies. Working gives me experience and also gives me money to cover my personal expenses. Currently, I am also actively collaborating with many newspapers. In addition to writing news and reflection articles, I also participate in writing difficult genres such as reports and investigations. |
![]() | Tran Thu Dung ( former student of PR-K 5 ) After receiving a bachelor's degree in Public Relations at Dai Nam University, I worked as a PR Marketing for a company in the field of beauty and health care. However, I still wanted to continue studying at a higher level. Therefore, I studied for a master's degree in Public Relations - Advertising at the Academy of Journalism and Propaganda . If you love the PR industry and want to have the opportunity to advance in the future, you only need to graduate with a good bachelor's degree to be fully qualified to apply for a master's program. |
![]() | Dao Hai Minh (PR-K9 student) I am a freshman. PR is the major I deliberately chose right after graduating from high school. I like the youthfulness, freshness, and creativity of this major. I like the communication and relationship activities with different audiences. Experiencing collective activities and events organized by the Faculty and the School, I feel much more active and confident. Dai Nam is a friendly, comfortable, and modern learning environment. I love many teachers and wonderful friends in my PR-09 class. |
![]() | Tran Xuan Bac (former student of PR-K5) PR is a field with quite open job opportunities. Most of my friends after graduation work at media companies, but I prefer journalism. I am currently working at VietNamnet Electronic Newspaper. The job is quite stable and interesting. In my opinion, job opportunities are for all of you, regardless of whether you study at a public or private school. The most important thing is your ability and good work results. |
