List of Courses Under Mass Communication

Courses Under Mass Communication Degree

On this article, I am going to list out some Mass Communication course outlines in Nigeria Universities which you will study before you can to become a Mass Communication graduate. Normally, a course outline should contain; course name, course description, course hours etc… but I am going to skip that information.

I will only list out the course names excluding GST Courses and those courses with part II and III to avoid too much information and there is no guarantee that the listed subjects (courses) here will be fully covered in your school except for Nigeria Universities.
