Grace Smith
Corporate & Public Communication, 2022
I am in my final year of completing a Bachelor of Communication and Media (Corporate and Public Communication), with a Breadth Major in Events and Tourism, at the University of Canberra (UC).
After studying business during my college education, I knew that I wanted to study communications and media at UC. I chose to take the corporate and public communications stream because I was inspired by the Queen of Public Relations (PR) Roxy Jacenko. I now know the industry isn’t all glamour and elaborate events; it is much more. I’ve learned that every business uses communication and media every day, and it is crucial to have employees who specialise in that area.
I am very passionate about all things communications, media, PR and events and I am very excited to see where this passion leads me in my career.
My skills include:
Customer Service
Time Management
Team Player
Use of Technology
Writing
Research
Creative Thinking
Social Media

This project involved creating a social media campaign on Instagram showcasing Canberra as more than just the nations capital. The project was a team project and can be visited on instagram @whenincanberra. My role in this project was content creation.
Strategic Project Management - Faculty Study Tour Proposal
In this project we worked on creating a project plan for a study tour trip to Melbourne. From Itinerary to gantt charts, I learnt an abundance about project management and how important it is when planing and during a project.
