About Us

The precursor of the Department of Advertising and Public Relations was founded in 1971 as the Department of Mass Communication, which created the three sections of Journalism, Advertising, and Radio-TV in 1984. As demand for advertising specialists increased with the general economic development of the country, the Department of Advertising and Public Relations was set up independently in 1997, and became a part of the College of Communication in 2010 along with the Graduate Institute of Mass Communication, the Department of Journalism and Communication Studies, and the Department of Communication Arts.

In light of this history, the Department of Advertising and Public Relations has been nurturing talents for nearly two decades, and many of our alumni are acclaimed for making outstanding contributions to advertising and other related fields both at home and abroad.
