CAM.1001 Introduction to Communication and Media

This course surveys human and media-enabled communication. Starting with concepts in communication theory, we consider interpersonal, public and nonverbal communication. A primary focus is the mass media-the history and means by which they communicate, the effects of this communication, and the professional and ethical issues involved. We cover print media, photography, radio, cinema, television and new media, and such related fields as advertising, public relations and political communication.
