The Institute supports this academic PR research conference in conjunction with the University of Miami and other sponsors. Over its history, IPRRC has become one of the top venues for presentation of new PR research and for interaction among scholars and PR professionals. IPRRC is unique in many ways.

• The only conference devoted entirely to research in public relations
• Featuring informal roundtable sessions where participants actively discuss (and even contribute to) the research
• Attended by grad students, professors and practitioners for real bridge-building between the academy and the profession
• Limited attendance to facilitate interaction -- during research sessions as well as the social events
