Strategic Communication (MA)

Strategic Communication (MA) is a programme for those who want more than just to understand the media — you want to know how to use them strategically to achieve goals in organisations, the public sphere, or politics.

Duration: 2 years Part-time study Location: Ljubljana* *Subject to a sufficient number of applications Study+ Support package available Title gained after graduation: Master of Arts (M.A.)

Do you want to shape public opinion, build reputation, and create communication that truly moves people?

Would you like to become a strategic communication expert — someone who can remain a clear voice in times of crisis and a persuasive force in campaigns?

Are you interested in public relations, political communication, digital campaigns, or communication in public administration?

Then this is the programme that gives you the tools, knowledge, and confidence to do exactly that.

Become the person who knows how to say the right thing, in the right way, at the right moment.

It’s no longer just about what we communicate — but how we do it. Strategic communication brings together analysis, planning, and the creation of effective communication solutions in an increasingly complex media and social environment.

Success Stories of Our Graduates

“Your faculty seemed the most suitable choice because of the wide range of subjects that I found both interesting and useful for developing journalistic skills. The description of the faculty and its study programmes convinced me to join. In short, the spark appeared when I realised that studying at your faculty would be an excellent opportunity to develop my journalistic abilities, to achieve my career goals, and to explore areas of knowledge and learning that were, at least for me at the time, still unfamiliar…” – Ana Raščan
