About the programme

Erasmus Mundus scholarships are awarded to the 10–15 highest-ranking admitted candidates, based on academic performance, journalistic or media experience, and the quality of the Application Reflections. Admission and scholarship share one application, with no separate scholarship application. Scholarship holders get a full tuition waiver for both years and a monthly living allowance, plus health and liability insurance. Most admitted students are self-funded, and the programme is taught in Aarhus, Denmark, with a second year at a specialisation university abroad.
