Ragan and Institute for Public Relations partner for new student research award

Ragan Communications and the Institute for Public Relations have announced a new award that will shine a spotlight on the next generation of communicators, elevate innovative ideas and give back to the academic community.

The Ragan Research Award calls on junior and senior undergraduate students to bring a strong point of view and rigorous secondary research to the topic of the future of work. After a joint review by IPR and Ragan, one winner will receive a $1,500 stipend to produce a short research brief which will be distributed by IPR. This rising communicator will also be profiled on Ragan and PR Daily.

“We are honored to be partnering with the Institute for Public Relations with a scholarship that will showcase the promising minds and thinking of future communicators,” says Diane Schwartz, CEO of Ragan Communications.
