Equipment and Laptop Needs

It is strongly recommended that APRMC majors own a full-sized modern laptop (not a "netbook") with Microsoft Office installed.

If a student is interested in pursuing a career path in a creative field (art direction, graphic design, etc.), we recommend a Mac (any current Apple laptop is fine but, we would recommend 1TB of storage and 16GB of RAM), with the additional purchase of Adobe Creative Cloud for Students (this will include access to all Adobe apps). This software does not need to be purchased immediately, however.

If a student is interested in pursuing a marketing/client services or media planning career path, a Windows PC is commonly used.
