新闻传播学的子专业包括：新闻学，新闻事业经营管理，广播与电视，传播学，公共关系和广告学，编辑出版学，新媒体与信息网络等。
新闻学是一种包含搜集、撰写及报道新闻的学科。在广义上，它亦包含了编辑和演示新闻专题的过程。新闻学在报业、电视、电台以及网络新媒体等各种传播媒介上均起着重要的作用。多数的传媒机构皆希望“先发制人”，争先发布资讯，而处于这种压力下，传媒机构通常会先对新闻进行编辑和校对，以使其内容符合该机构在准确性、素质和式样等方面的标准。有很多传媒机构均声称他们是政府机关和官员的监察者，由此监督政府对人民负责，并为这传统感到自豪。但同时，批评者则对传媒本身能否向大众负责而提出质疑。
新闻管理学又称新闻事业管理学，是研究新闻事业管理活动的特点和规律的学科，是新闻学和管理学的边缘学科。
广播电视学专业学生主要学习新闻学、广播电视学、以及与广播电视有关学科的基本理论和基础知识，受到广播电视新闻采访、写作、编导、播音、节目主持等方面的基本训练，具有广播电视节目策划、编辑、采访、管理等方面的基本能力。
传播学 （英语： Communication studies） 是一门研究传播与交流过程的学科， 通常被定义为跨越一定时间与空间的符号共享。 这使得传播学所包含的意义非常广泛， 它可以指任何信息在个体间传播交流的过程， 也涵盖了沟通， 交流， 通讯， 通信等内容。 早期西方学者对“传播“定义为： 发送者通过某种媒体以某种格式来传递信息到收信者， 以达致某个目的， 但学科发展至今， 其定义已远不止于此。
广告学是将广告以学术性的方法来教育和研究的学科。不少大学都有开设这个科目，而且通常都列在传播学院下面。广告学两大支柱是传播学和市场营销学。
编辑出版学专业培养适应现代出版产业发展需要，具备系统的编辑出版理论知识和技能、扎实的语言文字和文化科学基础，以及编辑数字信息技术应用能力，能在书刊出版、新闻传播、文化教育和企事业文化宣传等部门从事传播内容策划、编辑、出版项目经营、版面设计、校对以及印刷质量管理等岗位工作的复合型的现代编辑出版专业高级人才。
新媒体的出现不仅改变了过去的信息生产机制，同时也引起了新闻传播教育的革命，开设新媒体专业的高校不再把培养记者作为新闻传播专业的主要方向，而是培养一种泛媒体人才，宽口径、复合型新闻传播人才成为教学改革的主攻方向。这种教育设置的改革不仅适应了经济发展的需要，同时也引发了新闻传播教学理念的革命与创新，创办新媒体传播与信息网络专业成为时代的需要，经济发展的必然，高校适应市场发展的新起点。
