Is this programme theory or practice-oriented?
The target group of the Mundus programme are students with some journalistic experience, so that the need for practical instruction is low. So, although the programme nurtures a concern to maintain high journalistic standards, the focus is on reflection. This enables the participants to become clear on their role as journalists and what the leeway is in keeping high journalistic standards, on what they can achieve and what they cannot influence. In sum, this full-time programme is theory-oriented but includes practical elements (more at some of the specialism institutions than others). A fuller description of the content and approach at the specialism Universities is available onthis page.
