Media, Health, & Social Issues focuses broadly on relations between media and the issues and problems that face society today, such as health, poverty, and crime. This includes social level analysis of mainstream and alternative media as products of and influences on society; individual level analysis of psychological and physiological processes through which knowledge, attitudes and behaviors are shaped; and the creation of messages related to health and social well-being, as well as how strategic messages campaigns are can influence decision making and social development. Communication, Organizations, & Culture focuses on the role of communication in creating, maintaining and transforming socially collective groups ranging from for-profit businesses and corporations to non-profit community organizations and social movements. Because culture is central to social change and stasis, the study of intercultural communication is an integral scholarly component.
