General description

The specialized Master's program in Political Communication & Governance gives

latest research findings on the supply, content, and effects of communication
between politics, the media, and the public – as well as on its transformational dynamics and the possibilities for regulation. This expertise
enables students to independently plan, run, and evaluate empirical projects on
relevant topics and problems of political communication. They acquire in-depth
analytical skills in relation to the changing structures and processes of
digital political communication, as well as comprehensive knowledge of social

research, as well as in journalism and media production.
