There are many interdisciplinary subjects in the university. What's the difference between journalism and communication?

First of all, we know that there are many interdisciplinary subjects in universities, so let's look at the difference between journalism and communication.

First, news communication is divided into two majors. News and communication have similarities and differences. Journalism majors train professional journalists for all kinds of news media and cultural units. Students are also required to have strong expressive ability and practical ability, such as news gathering, writing, editing and evaluation. Communication majors train public communication talents for government, enterprises, media and other social organizations. Journalism and communication are two majors of journalism and communication. These two majors are basically the same. The same is true of the education system, tuition fees, scholarships, training and employment. Theoretically, journalism focuses on the study of news theory, news business and news history, while communication focuses on the study of communication behavior, media and communication effect.

Second, the content of communication science includes anthropology, linguistics, semiotics, informatics, sociology and psychology, as well as advertising, news, film and television, marketing and foreign exchange, including communication law, communication theory research, media development research, cross-cultural communication, advertising, art communication and other branches. Therefore, the difficulty of choosing news or communication cannot be accurately judged. It is recommended to consider personal interests or first impressions. At the same time, you can also check the corresponding research direction of news communication in the enrollment catalogue. Although the research direction has little influence, there are corresponding tutors in each direction. If you already have a favorite tutor, you can look at the research direction of the tutor, whether it is news or communication.

Third, there is basically no difference between the actual courses. The content of the first postgraduate entrance examination is exactly the same. All ten books. The first question is the same, so is the review difficulty. News mainly focuses on traditional newspapers and comments. The content of study includes Marxist news theory, theoretical news history, practical news interview, writing, editing, commenting and photography. Journalism includes theoretical journalism, Chinese and foreign news history, applied journalism, radio and television journalism, news photography, editing and publishing and other professional branches. Besides newspapers, communication also involves all the contents of almost all media, such as TV, radio, movies and even multimedia. In addition, advertising, public relations, opinion polls, etc. It is also within its scope.

It can be seen that although the names are similar, there are still great differences.
