The Erasmus Mundus Journalism master's degree offers you a truly unique and international educational experience. You will study at leading universities in at least two European countries. Selected students can add a third country by studying at one of our prestigious, credit awarding, universities, in the second semester.
Your second year of studies will give you a distinctive academic and journalistic profile within ‘Totalitarianism & Transition’; ‘Business & Innovation’; ‘Politics & Communication’; or ‘Cultures & Contexts’.
All students spend the first year of the master’s degree in Aarhus, Denmark studying at both Aarhus University and the Danish School of Media and Journalism.
You can customise your studies by choosing to take electives or an internship as part of your second semester. Or you can apply to be one of the selected students who can study their second semester (30 ECTS) at one of our prestigious credit awarding universities.The aim of the first year is to give you the analytical skills needed to identify and analyse cultural, political, and technological challenges to and opportunities for journalism across the globe. You will also learn how to integrate this sophisticated theoretical understanding with practical approaches, to assert journalism within a changing public sphere.
In the second year, you will be able to specialise in the area of your choice to delve into field-specific topics and strengthen your reflexive journalism skills:
The specialisations in Totalitarianism & Transition and Business & Innovation offer more practical journalism training. On the other hand, the specialisations in Politics & Communication and Cultures & Contexts are more theory and research oriented.
* All students can go on Study Abroad. However, non-EU students with a Mundus scholarship, will unfortunately have to give up their scholarship while studying outside of the EU. This is because the EU scholarships for non-EU students are restricted to studying in countries within the European Union
