Master's Program in Digital Media: Last Call for Applications
The courses are held in English. Nonetheless, the study program adheres to Germany's gratuitous practices concerning tuition fees. Thus, being accepted into this program is like winning a scholarship. This year's first application deadline is 31 May 2007.
The core of the four-semester study program is formed by a project in which students tackle research and development on a given problem of digital media. They work autonomously under supervision of a professor. Each of the four universities offers a project on a different subfield of digital media: Hochschule Bremen (Bremen University of Applied Sciences), Hochschule Bremerhaven (Bremerhaven University of Applied Sciences) and Universität Bremen (University of Bremen) concentrate on informatics; these institutions issue the M.Sc. degree. The Hochschule für Künste Bremen (University of the Arts Bremen) addresses media design and awards the M.A. degree.
The study program features a highly international body of students. Thus, it is not only a melting pot for engineers, designers, artists, and media researchers, but also allows the students finding their place in the globalized world of digital media.
Students have to possess a prior degree comparable to a German bachelor's degree (three years of full-time study) in digital media or a related program such as computer science or graphics design. Depending on their interests and previous activities, also graduates of study programs in fields such as the natural sciences, media theory, and sociology may apply. The prior degree does not need to be already completed at the time of application.
Bremen is located in north-western Germany, close to the Northern Sea. Still a prominent harboring place for international goods, Bremen has become a major center for the digital media industry, with dozens of small, medium, and large companies seeking research and offering jobs. Bremen's ancient market place has been declared world-cultural heritage; the town is widely known for its appearance in the tale “Bremen town musicians” of the Brothers Grimm.
