The study programme is an exclusive one in the Baltic region. It provides competencies needed for corporate communication professionals and those willing to tie their careers with international corporations working as CSR or PR specialists or consultants. The programme's goal is to provide a broad and profound knowledge of international, cross-cultural corporate communication and form practical skills necessary for professional activities. The programme is focused on providing additional qualifications, which enable seeing and evaluating various communication processes from the global perspective, rather than on educating a specialist for a certain narrow area of activities.

"International Communication program provides a broad basis for young professionals to enter the field of communication. Unlike most study programs, it combines the rigorous scientific approach of a research university, with the practically orientated hands-on methods for allied science institutions. This combination enables the program graduates to develop and apply abstract solutions to concrete problems."
