In terms of professional competencies and skills, "Media, Public Communication, and Globalization" (MPCG) offer students the opportunity to understand, reflect and act upon an integrative model of public communication, both on the public arena and through the new and "old" communication technologies. In this respect, our professors propose the latest concepts, theories, principles and fundamental methods of research in communication and media studies, in a globalized social exchange of information.
