Mass communication courses explore theories of media effects and audience reception, while media & marketing communication courses analyze consumer behavior, market segmentation, and audience targeting strategies for marketing purposes.

This requires an understanding of media consumption patterns, audience demographics, and media advertising strategies, also relevant to mass communication.
