Communication studies (or communication science) is an academic disciplinethat deals with processes of human communication and behavior, patterns of communication in interpersonal relationships, social interactions and communication in different cultures. (wikipedia)
Communication is closely related to culture. Broadly, these practices help us understand how they shape cultural identities, norms, and values.
Communication studies examines human communication processes, including interpersonal relationships, social interactions, and cultural exchanges. It uses both qualitative methods, like interviews and discourse analysis, to explore communication experiences, and quantitative methods, such as surveys and experiments, to identify patterns and measure effectiveness. This combination provides a comprehensive understanding of how people share and interpret messages across different contexts.
