The HMS has strong partnership relations with the Faculty of Journalism of Lomonosov Moscow State University. Last time the HMS students visited the Faculty of Journalism in spring of 2014, the visit was the part of the “Innovation Field Trip-2014” Program.

What will the students get in this Traineeship? First of all they will have an opportunity to meet the media professionals and scholars, to discuss the current trends in media industry, to take part in lectures and seminars, to visit the leading media companies and talk to its managers and employees. We wait the students will share their knowledge about Russian media system and media economy with their German colleagues. We are sure that their participation in the discussions and conversations will be active and fruitful.

The nowadays media system is changing rapidly and professional and scholar webs will play more and more important role in shaping media future. We believe this visit will be the important part in making new media in Russia in Germany.
