GUC introduces new MBA with support from DW Akademie https://blogs.dw.com/insider/2013/03/12/guc-introduces-new-mba-with-support-from-dw-akademie/ Tue, 12 Mar 2013 14:12:28 +0000 http://blogs.dw.com/insider/?p=2061

The first GUC MBA media management students

DW Akademie and the German University in Cairo (GUC) are working together once again to offer a new interdisciplinary MBA. The new course of study will combine economics, journalism and media management to help the media professionals of tomorrow. The MBA in media management was established thanks to a long-term collaboration between GUC and DW Akademie, which has been organizing media-related seminars regularly at the university in Cairo. “We hope this course will develop to form the nucleus of further academic and intercultural exchange in Egypt’s media sector,” said Professor Christoph Schmidt, head of the academic program at DW Akademie.

In the long term, DW Akademie plans similar collaborations with other universities in selected partner countries. The idea is to export DW Akadamie’s master’s course in International Media Studies, a unique program which has been running since 2009 and combines journalism and media management with development studies.

DW holds ‘train the trainer’ sessions at Indian journalism school https://blogs.dw.com/insider/2012/08/08/dw-holds-train-the-trainer-sessions-at-indian-journalism-school/ Wed, 08 Aug 2012 11:45:11 +0000 http://blogs.dw.com/insider/?p=1563 DW and the Indira Ghandi National Open University’s (IGNOU) School of Journalism and New Media Studies have begun nine days of training aimed at equipping IGNOU instructors with the latest teaching skills. The Aug. 6-14 program marks the fourth such collaboration between DW and IGNOU since their partnership started in 2008.

DW Akademie instructors flew to New Delhi, bringing cutting-edge teaching methodologies with them. IGNOU participants included teachers and researchers, media trainers and project managers.

The goal of the training was for the participants to communicate more effectively in their own teaching. DW previously put on three similar sessions, while IGNOU broadcast DW programming over campus radio stations.

With 3.5 million distance learning students, IGNOU is the world’s biggest university. In keeping with its special charge to provide education for disadvantage parts of Indian society, “The People’s University” offers basic and general education as well as professional training.
