Top 3+0 UK Degree in Advertising & Brand Management in Malaysia at APIIT

Staffordshire University is a top rated university in the UK

Designers work on everything from household products to industrial ones, from advertisements to any visual communication, from small to massive projects, for themselves and for large corporations. Every time you buy something a designer has been involved in creating it and promoting it. What you buy may have been made in one country, but has usually been designed in UK, Europe or USA. The net flow of payments for licences and royalties of designs from manufacturing countries such as China to UK is massive. British designers are amongst the leading designers in the world and have developed their expertise in UK Universities such as Staffordshire University.

Now you can experience the advantages of studying design with Staffordshire University in Malaysia. The Degrees offered by APIIT have the same curriculum as at Staffordshire University in the UK. They will develop your abilities to work on your own and in a team in initiating and creating a wide range of products and promotional activities, including advertisements for print, broadcast, and online as well as display packaging and other promotional support tools.

Many of the world’s most iconic and recognizable designs originate in the UK. Think of the UK Union Jack flag to be found on clothing and cars, the easily recognizable MINI car, the London Underground map which has been copied by rail systems around the world and London buses.

You may want to equip yourself for a career in pretty much any sector that requires a certified Designer. Whatever the case, you’ll find we’ve an industry-leading course for you.

Branding & Advertising Professionals in Demand in Malaysia

ADVERTISING is mass media content intended to persuade audiences of readers, viewers or listeners to take action on products, services and ideas. The idea is to drive consumer behavior in a particular way in regard to a product, service or concept.

Advertisers want to generate increased consumption of their commercial products and services.
Advertising messages are media content paid for by sponsors. Sponsors finance the production of advertisements and buy space for them in print media or online, or time for them to be broadcast in radio or television programs.

An advertisement is a paid announcement. For example, a persuasive message selling a product.

Mass Communication students get lots of practice using the sound system, or emceeing at the various activities at UCSI University

Advertisements are placed in traditional media such as newspapers, magazines, television, radio and outdoor signs, and in new media such as websites, text messages and social media. Placing is the buying of specific space in print and online or time on the air. Placement is where the ad is positioned in a medium.

A strong brand is invaluable as the competition for customers is very high. It’s important to spend time investing in researching, defining, and building your brand.

A strong brand increases the chances of customers purchasing the products. After all your brand is the source of a promise to your consumer. It’s a foundational piece in your marketing communication and one you do not want to be without.

To succeed in branding you must understand the needs and wants of your customers and prospects. You do this by integrating your brand strategies through advertising campaigns. Hence, branding and advertising go hand in hand.

Branding involves the frequent repetition of a product’s name or image in an attempt to have the desirable qualities of that product stick in the minds of consumers. An integrated media campaign combines paid advertising with free media.

These also are referred to as integrated marketing communications. Any mass medium can deliver the advertising message. Branding & Advertising professionals need to be creative and use the most effective medium that will reach the target market with the intended message. Branding & Advertising professionals in Malaysia can use some of the following mediums to deliver their brand message:

List of the Best Private Universities in Malaysia to Study Top Public Relations (PR) Degree Courses

Written by EduSpiral Consultant Services For more information contact 01111408838

Students interested in studying Public Relations should be good in languages, like to socialise with people, have an outgoing personality, possess strategic thinking, like to write, organise events, a creative mind, and lots of energy.

A good command of the English language is very important for a successful career in Public Relations. Students need to choose a university where the students speak mainly in English and experience in offering the programme. If you are weak in English, it will be very difficult for you to maintain the image of your company with bad English. You will not be able to write good press releases and copy for the brochures. Coming up with good taglines or campaign ideas for your product or company will be almost impossible. Having a good command of both English and Mandarin would be very advantageous. However, if you are only proficient in Mandarin, you will not be able to get jobs in top multinational or global companies

It is important to choose the best private universities and colleges in Malaysia to ensure that you get the necessary training and skills to succeed in the competitive workforce. Choosing a private university with an English-speaking student environment will help you to improve your language skills. The university should also be equipped with the necessary facilities such as recording studio, photo studio, computer lab and some have Mac Computers. Experienced & qualified lecturers are essential to equip you with the necessary knowledge and skills to succeed in the mass communication career.

Public relations is the process of providing information to the public in order to present a specific view of a product or organization. Public relations differs from advertising in that it is less obtrusive, and aimed at providing a more comprehensive opinion to a large audience in order to shape public opinion. Unlike advertising, public relations professionals only have control until the message is related to media gatekeepers who decide where to pass the information on to the audience

Public relations is the professional management of external and internal communications to build the reputation of a company or cause. Today’s PR Specialists work on developing beneficial relationships in cities, governments, corporations, consumers, media, charities and communities to manage the relationships and communication channels.

Public relations (PR) is the way organisations, companies and individuals communicate with the public and media. A PR specialist communicates with the target audience directly or indirectly through media with an aim to create and maintain a positive image and create a strong relationship with the audience.

The PR Specialist uses a wide variety of communication tools and techniques such as the press releases, newsletters, public events, conventions, newspapers, billboards, blogs, social media, websites, TV, radio, etc.

The business world is very competitive and in order to win new customers and keep the existing ones, companies have to set themselves apart from the competition. But they also need to create and maintain a positive public image.

A PR specialist or firm helps them both create and maintain a good reputation among both the media and the customers by communicating in their behalf and presenting their products, services and the overall brand in a positive manner they will remember. A positive public image helps create a strong relationship with the customers which in turn increases the sales.
