The Hamburg Media School (HMS), founded in 2003, is a semi-state educational institution on the Finkenau in Hamburg-Uhlenhorst . Like Anglo-Saxon graduate schools , it only offers advanced courses for graduates or for professionals. It is funded as a public-private partnership . and cooperates with the University of Hamburg and the University of Fine Arts Hamburg . Through this cooperation, the degrees are officially recognized and entitle them to pursue a doctorate.
General and history
The Hamburg Media School is based in the buildings of the former Finkenau women's clinic . It was founded in 2002 and started with the MBA in Media Management course in 2003. In 2004, the Film course from the University of Hamburg was integrated into the HMS. In 2005 the journalism course was added. Today's offer at HMS includes the three courses of study media management, journalism and film as well as various further training offers. Hamburg Media School GmbH is sponsored by a public-private partnership - consisting of the HMS Foundation, the Free and Hanseatic City of Hamburg, the University of Hamburg and the University of Fine Arts. After the publication of the report of the Hamburg Court of Auditors , the HMS came under fire because the study of a small number of students was mainly financed from public funds. The new part-time course Digital Journalism (Executive Master of Arts in Journalism) for working journalists and editors has been available since autumn 2013.
courses
Media management
Both degrees in the field of media management are accredited by ACQUIN and, thanks to the cooperation with the University of Hamburg, entitle them to do a doctorate. They are fee-based master’s courses.
MBA in Media Management
The two-year curriculum of the MBA in Media Management focuses on three areas: "Business Administration & Management Skills", "Media Business & Production" and "Context & Values". In this way, business and media law content should be linked to the conception and implementation of creative design processes. A practical relevance is in the foreground from the start. In addition to national and international academics, managers from media companies also teach. A network is systematically built up through company internships and practical projects with media companies.
Executive MBA in Media Management
The part-time Executive MBA in Media Management course conveys economic, legal and technical work priorities and combines these with the development of social and leadership skills. The curriculum is designed to run for two years.
Film studies
The film course was founded in 1991 by Hark Bohm at the University of Hamburg and integrated into the Hamburg Media School in 2004. Bohm had designed the offer as a mixture of artistic training (as at the HfbK) with technical and specialist knowledge and expressly wanted to pursue international standards. Renowned filmmakers such as Michael Ballhaus and Karl Walter Lindenlaub could be won over as lecturers for the 24 students who start every two years.
Work of the students was u. a. was awarded the Student Academy Award of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences for the graduation film Die Rote Jackson (director: Florian Baxmeyer ) in 2003 and for the film Der Ausreißer in 2005. Since September 2007, film studies have been directed by Richard Reitinger and Hubertus Meyer-Burckhardt , and since 2012 by Richard Reitinger alone. Since then, in addition to many international prizes, film studies have won the Max Ophüls Prize for short and medium-length films three times in a row , the Studio Hamburg Young Talent Prize three times and, in May 2011, the third Student Oscar with Raju , which also won the Short film Oscar nominated in 2012. In 2015 the film Sadakat won the golden student Oscar. In 2017 Katja Benrath's graduation film Watu Wote - All of us won in the Narrative category (International Film Schools) . The HMS film course now has five student Oscars. Having studied film, HMS is a member of the international film school association CILECT . The film course includes directing, camera, screenwriting and production and is the only accredited course with a Master of Arts degree in film in Germany.
journalism
Until 2012, the HMS offered a master's degree in Journalism. This course has been replaced by the part-time course in Digital Journalism . The course has a modular structure. It is aimed at editors and freelance journalists, but also at employees in PR or corporate publishing agencies as well as anyone interested in the media who have at least one year of professional experience and have completed a first degree. The course is offered in cooperation with the University of Hamburg and entitles you to a doctorate . The offer began in autumn 2012 with the first modules and has been fully studyable since autumn 2013. The curriculum contains modules such as cross-media production, journalism and audience, media systems, team building and conflict management as well as data journalism. In the workshops, students also learn entrepreneurial thinking and innovation management. This is particularly consolidated in project work. The course is chargeable and designed for two years. It ends with a master's thesis.
Master's degree in digital journalism
The Hamburg Media School combines a traineeship in a media company with a university master's degree in digital journalism. It is a part-time course in the existing course on digital journalism and therefore combines application-oriented theory with practice. Every three to four weeks, volunteers come to Hamburg as part of their two-year training and learn journalistic topics such as data journalism, social video, fact checking, but also design thinking, innovation and product management and entrepreneurial thinking in workshops. After the first modules, which above all convey the basics of digital journalism, there is a practical phase with in-house product developments. The master's internship concludes with a university master's degree. As a rule, the media houses of the volunteers finance their studies from 499 euros a month. The first year of the master's internship in digital journalism will start in autumn 2019.
further education
The Hamburg Media School also offers further education seminars. Here, too, the focus is on the media industry, especially online marketing, journalism and media management.
Tide: transmitter and academy
The Hamburg Media School is the sponsor of the citizen and education channel Tide , a local, non-commercial television (TIDE TV) and radio broadcaster (TIDE 96.0). The TIDE AKADEMIE also offers the opportunity to acquire practical skills and knowledge in dealing with audiovisual media at low cost.
