Multimedia Maymester in Munich and Berlin
Be one of the students who will spend May learning to create multimedia projects in Munich and Berlin, Germany (two weeks in the country). There are no tourist buses for us because the class will be conducted on the streets as you discover hidden sites that very few tourists experience!
This is a hands-on course. You will work in teams to create multimedia stories/projects involving words, video, photography, data visualization, design and just about anything else you can dream up. If this is not enough, the trip includes several surprise excursions to sample the country’s culture. Be part of one of the longest and most successful study abroad trips at the University of South Carolina ... come join us for the experience of a lifetime.
Pre-departure: The Munich trip will have a mandatory group meeting once each month for about two hours starting the Spring semester.
When: May 5-21
The trip is two weeks in Germany and includes one week in Munich and one week in Berlin!
The class also has three days at the School of Journalism and Mass Communications
at the end of the trip.
