What are Communication Studies?

Communication studies encompasses a field of study that examines the process of human communication. It includes the creation, delivery as well as receiving of messages, verbal and non-verbal. 

Communication studies is a multidisciplinary field that covers mass communication, health communication, intercultural communication, scientific communication, interpersonal communication, political communication and gender studies. 

Research on communication usually intersects with other fields such as psychology, sociology and economics. 

For example, a communication studies scholar may conduct research on how digital communication impacts education and learning in the traditional classroom setting.

 

What Is Creative Arts?

The creative arts cover fields such as performing arts, photography, videography, printmaking, painting, visual arts, film, multimedia design and many more. It was not long ago that these courses were looked upon as ‘less’ than STEM courses. 

However, the creative arts are now an important part of education with the benefits of these courses being widely recognized. 

Creative arts courses are suitable for students who want to pursue a career in which they can hone their creativity. 

It is a course that is perfect for those who love having their ideas and imagination come to life in the form of moving art. An education in the creative arts will provide the foundation for you to enter into the real world of arts and design.
