History of the DCM
Journalism, communication studies and media research have a long tradition at the University of Fribourg. To mark the 50th anniversary of the founding of the Institute of Journalism, students of the DCM reviewed the history of the Department and its preceding organisations in the seminar "Jubiläum multimedial: 50 Jahre Institut für Journalistik/DCM" in the autumn semester of 2015. Their contributions can be read here.
