Communication studies coordinates three distinct approaches to the media: practical application, historical study, and critical analysis. Practical application combines basic training in equipment operation, communication skills, production design, organizational skills, and professional internship.

Critical analysis explores media ethics, and the analysis and evaluation of specific mediated texts using qualitative and quantitative methods.
