Top Dog Communication is the student-run public relations agency at UIndy. It is one of few in the nation that meets the qualifications for affiliation with the Public Relations Student Society of America (PRSSA), being named the "Outstanding Firm" nationally in 2011. Every semester, small teams of students develop a real public relations project for a local non-profit organization. Students are involved in all aspects of the public relations process, from developing a plan to creating and executing specific tactics and measuring results.
