Doc Nomads is the first joint master in Europe in the field of FILM that was granted the right to use the Erasmus Mundus brand name and the grant support of the European Commission for the first five editions. In each edition, about twenty-four students from all around the world follow a mobility track from Lisbon to Brussels, via Budapest. In doing so, students are immersed in different cultural environments, learning how to make use of their abilities outside their usual social contexts. Moreover from the very start, they insisted on creating a distinctive curriculum and adopting a characteristic instructional approach – selecting only one class per edition and focusing on practice with personal coaching.
Taught entirely in English and taking a practical approach, DOC NOMADS’ unique curriculum and supportive faculty aim at expanding students’ skills and creativity while providing an integrated training that combines a focus on the arts with contemporary practices in film production. Upon completion of the program, degree holders will be prepared and qualified to enter professional life in the craft of documentary filmmaking – as directors, as producers, as independent artists.
