Abstract

This study aimed to explore the needs of Public Administration students in relation to public speaking competence and to prepare them for future job performance. Data were collected through Focus Group Discussions (FGD) and semi-structured interviews with sixth-semester students of the PA Study Program. The FGD revealed that students viewed public speaking as essential for their future careers and highlighted the need for specific topics and teaching methods to enhance communication skills. The interviews provided clarification and support for the FGD results. The study found that students require effective teaching strategies that incorporate materials that support the learning of communication skills. The implications of the study suggest that PA programs should prioritize communication skills in their curricula to better prepare graduates for their future careers.
