The Mass Media Studies course seeks to help students gain mastery of the skills required for scientific study of mass communications so that they can participate as broadly skilled leaders in 21st-century society. Toward achieving this goal, the course employs a comprehensive approach to the study of communication theory by taking a detailed look at the condition of society, seeking to understand people's needs and activities, and learning about multimedia as a tool for transmission of information. From these angles, the function, structure, and social influence of newspapers, broadcasting, publishing, and advertising are researched in terms of both their theory and their practice. Not only are fundamental theories of sociology or social psychology instructed, but also the importance of applied and practical studies is stressed in the Course of Mass Communication Sociology. Rather, more lessons are on the latter.
Social research is also important in the curriculum of the course.
They study the methods of social survey, understanding it by themselves, analyze the data using multi-variate analysis, and in the last semester they are to write an analytical report about the findings of the survey.
