Featured Alumni

Graduates of the advertising and public relations programs at UT include professionals with impressive credentials employed in a wide range of jobs. A large percentage of them, as you might expect, start their careers in advertising or public relations agencies. Several have risen to the level of vice president, president and even Chief Executive Officer of agencies. UT alums are currently working at each of the twenty largest agencies in the country, at many of the smaller "hot" shops and at agencies of virtually every size and geographic location imaginable, including agencies in Zhongshan, China, Chicago and San Francisco.

Others have chosen to work in media. They have taken positions at full-service digital agencies, with vendors such as Spotify and iHeart Radio, and at television stations, etc., across the nation and around the world. Many have gone to the "client side," working for the businesses and other organizations that advertise. Still others have gone into advertising- and marketing-related positions, working in commercial production, sales promotion, public relations, event planning and direct marketing. In addition, UT advertising graduates can be found teaching in colleges and universities all around the world.
