Welcome to the Danish School of Media
and Journalism
A warm welcome to the Danish School of Media
and Journalism (DMJX) and a new international
environment that hopefully will give you both
professional and social challenges over the next
semester. Our greatest satisfaction results from the
evaluations when we see that students have moved
to a higher understanding of both subject of study
and themselves.
DMJX has a variety of permanent staff and both
national and international guest lecturers from
the media. Furthermore, DMJX prioritize to have
strategic partnerships with the best journalism
schools around the world. In cooperation with
strategic partners, DMJX is European coordinator
for projects from EU programs like the EU-New
Zealand and the Erasmus Mundus Programmes, and
have a broad partnership with Erasmus bilateral
agreements. These activities have helped to
sponsor course development and the exchange of
both teachers and students. The Nordic roots are
developed through partnerships with journalism
schools from the Nordic countries. We look forward
to having you as a student for the next semester,
and hope you will grab the opportunity to be part
of a both national and international environment,
and form a network which will be a benefit for your
future life as a journalist or within communication,
being part of a strong alumni after you have left
DMJX.
As we hopefully contribute to your process of
getting a better understanding of journalism and
communication in an international environment,
we do hope you will contribute to the ongoing
process of maintaining the high quality
international journalism education at DMJX.

DMJX: Background
A historical scribe
• The Danish School of Media and Journalism was
formed in 2008 by a merger between
• The Danish School of Journalism
• UPDATE
• The Graphics Art Institute of Denmark
The merger of the three educational establishments
means that the school now covers the whole media
sector and provides design and content to the media
industry, as well as giving students and teachers the
opportunity to exchange knowledge and experience
of the media sector across specialist groups.
The Danish School of Journalism
The first Danish journalism course was established
as part of Aarhus University in 1946. In 1971,
Danmarks Journalisthøjskole (the Danish School of
Journalism) was established as a free standing
institution doing research and teaching at the
undergraduate level offering a BA in Journalism.
In 1992, the four year BA course of photojournalism
was started. Part of this course is taught together
with the BA in journalism.
Both journalism and photojournalism have been
internationally oriented for a long time. The very first
international program, ” Europe in the World”, was
launched in 1990, and have been followed by five
international semester programmes in journalism,
photo journa lism, and corporate communication.
In 2004 the Danish School of Journalism in
cooperation with Aarhus University and four
European Universities was granted the Erasmus
Mundus Masters stamp with the Erasmus Mundus
Masters Journalism, Media and Globalization.
This global start was followed by two national
masters courses in journalism offered by the Danish
School of Journalism and Aarhus University with the
degree issued by Aarhus University.
In 2011 a BA education in Corporate Communication
was offered to start 2011 in Aarhus and 2013
in Copenhagen.
UPDATE
Established in 2007 as Northern Europe’s largest
centre for journalism training and skills with over
100 training courses and other events offered each
semester.
The same year, UPDATE entered into a strategic
alliance with the leading training establishment in
the USA; the Poynter Institute in Florida, and runs
the first Poynter summer school under UPDATE’s
management.
Further studies and training are offered both in
Copenhagen and in Aarhus.
The Graphics Art Institute of Denmark
Founded in 1943 with the objective of creating a
theoretical education for future graphic managers.
For many years, its training courses have been
focussed on economics and technology, but since
the 1990s digital and print media have played a
larger part in the training which has today
developed into the existing Bachelor degrees in
Media Production and Management.
In 1956, a new stream was launched: Special
studies in Graphic Design. The special study course
puts most initial emphasis on book presentation,
but moves on to include many other graphic design
processes in both print and digital media. Over the
years, the course has developed into a Bachelor
degree course in Graphic Communications.
At the suggestion of the TV and media industries,
the Bachelor course in TV and Media Planning was
added to the school’s full-time courses in 2006.
In order to meet the increasing need for specialist
staff in the media industry, Graphic Communications
was divided into three streams in 2007:
Graphic Design, Interactive Design and Creative
Communication. A new BA course in photographic
Communication was launched in 2012, and the BA
course in Corporate Communication was launched
in Copenhagen in 2013.

What we expect from you
The Basics
We strive to provide you with high quality,
dedicated teaching in the DMJX international
programmes. The rules and the procedures that
govern the Danish students at DMJX also apply to
the international students:
In particular we call your attention to the following
facts:
• Be punctual in class. Classes start on time.
• Inform the teacher if you are not able to come
to class, and if you are ill.
• Respect deadlines.
• If students fail to submit work by a deadline
without first requesting permission for an
extension and being granted an extension, the
work will not be accepted and the result will be
a fail.
• Observe the program policy and the rules on
plagiarism and fabrication.
• Bear in mind that sources, experts or people
that you interview should be treated cordially
and respectfully. You should honour any
promises made to them.
Program Policy
We strive at the Danish School of Media
and Journalism to uphold the standards of
excellence in Journalism.
We require the students to uphold the IJF standards
of journalism in all their work:
The IFJ Declaration of Principles on the conduct of
journalists:
“This international declaration is proclaimed as a
standard of professional conduct for journalists
engaged in gathering, transmitting, disseminating
and commenting on news and information in
describing events.
1. Respect for truth and for the right of the public
to truth is the first duty of the journalist.
2. In pursuance of this duty, the journalist shall at
all times defend the principles of freedom in
the honest collection and publication of news,
and of the right of fair comment and criticism.
3. The journalist shall report only in accordance
with facts of which he/she knows the origin.
The journalist shall not suppress essential
information or falsify documents.
4. The journalist shall use only fair methods to
obtain news, photographs and documents.
5. The journalist shall do the utmost to rectify
any published information which is found to be
harmfully inaccurate.
6. The journalist shall observe professional
secrecy regarding the source of information
obtained in confidence.
7. The journalist shall be aware of the danger of
discrimination being furthered by the media,
and shall do the utmost to avoid facilitating
such discrimination based on, among other
things, race, sex, sexual orientation, language,
religion, political or other opinions, and
national or social origins.
8. The journalist shall regard as grave professional
offences the following:
• plagiarism;
• malicious misrepresentation;
• calumny, slander, libel, unfounded
accusations;
• acceptance of a bribe in any form in
consideration of either publication or
suppression.
9. Journalists worthy of the name shall deem it
their duty to observe faithfully the principles
stated above. Within the general laws of each
country the journalist shall recognise in professional
matters the jurisdiction of colleagues
only, to the exclusion of every kind of interference
by governments or others.
(Adopted by the 1954 World Congress of the IFJ.
Amended by the 1986 World Congress.)
When submitting your student work, be aware that
plagiarism is presenting someone else’s words,
images or other work as your own without credit or
attribution. This includes quoting without proper
attribution.
Be aware that fabrication in the form of deliberately
using bogus information is an act of dishonesty.
Be aware that violations of the basic rules of
journalism will result in failing the course where
the violation occurs or in expulsion from the
program. Written assignments are being checked by
the plagiarism detection system Urkund.
If you are in doubt consult your teacher.

Study Rules
Our international courses are centered around
production. You will have lectures, literature and
evaluation sessions, but most of your time will
be spent outside the classroom in some phase of
production. Theory, therefore, is doubly matched
with practice. It is “learning-by-doing.”
Your attendance is expected at all lectures and
evaluations and your participation is expected in
the production of all assignments.
Grading
All international courses are full course load
semester programs run in English. The journalism
courses are designed for students with a background
in journalism understanding the basic concepts of
angle, source management and documentation.
Some courses are graded passed/not passed. Some
courses are graded by the Danish grading system;
please see the conversion table for ECTS and US
equivalents. If grades are needed, all courses may
be graded; this requires that an agreement on this is
made in advance with the international office contact
anna@dmjx.dk. Students’ activities are graded based
on active attendance at lectures, preparation for the
lectures, participation in group work, written and
other assignments, punctuality and in some cases
examinations.
Workshop teachers may ask students to redo,
correct or adjust specific tasks or assignments in
case of these being insufficient.
No student who has received a passing mark for an
assignment will be permitted to resubmit in order
to gain a better result; the first result stands.
Each student has three chances to obtain a passing
mark for each course. Special regulations apply for
the final project.
Attendance
Due to the working style at the Danish School
of Media and Journalism where group work and
coaching have a high priority, students are expected
to attend all classes. If you for some reason cannot
come, you must call the Danish School of Media and
Journalism. In order to pass a course you must in
principle attend all classes. Exceptions can be made
if you show a medical certificate and/or you make
an arrangement with the teacher.
Phone
We expect that you have a mobile phone when
you arrive, and that you buy phone cards for your
mobile upon arrival. The mobile is an important part
of your journalistic equipment. For long distance
calls, we advise students to buy global cards/other
cards and/or use Skype.

10 Student Handbook 2014

Living in Aarhus
Housing
It is hard to find housing in Aarhus. The Danish
School of Media and Journalism is cooperating
very closely with the Aarhus Municipality office for
Student Housing (Kollegiekontoret) and the places
international students are staying are distributed
by Kollegiekontoret. Please respect the rules at the
places, so DMJX is able to maintain the good
relationship to these dormitories and future
international students can stay there as well.
Each rent is paid by you at a local post office, at any
bank or by internet-banking. You will receive a bill
in your room each month. Rents are paid in advance
at the beginning of the month.
Please bear in mind that it is your own
responsibility to make sure that the rent is paid on
time. If you fail to pay the rent before the 3rd
working day, the local housing administration
office (Kollegiekontoret) will charge you a late fee
of about 200 DKK.
You are expected to keep your room clean and in
an acceptable condition. You will also have joint
responsibility for the maintenance of shared facilities
such as the kitchen and common rooms. Lack in
maintenance and cleaning of your room will result
in heavy deductions from your deposit. Approximately
2 months after you have moved out of your
room, the deposit will be sent to you according to
your own instructions.
Please note that most of the dormitories require
students to move out 7 working days before the end
of the last month of your lease-agreement.
Most students´ residences are not located in the
city centre, but the bus connections and bicycle
paths in Aarhus are quite good. Private rooms tend
to be more centrally located.
Living with Danish students is a good way to learn
something about the local culture and perhaps even
a little Danish. Danes can be a little reserved, so be
prepared to take the first step when getting to know
your neighbours. You will soon find out that Danes
are usually easy-going and quite friendly. Every
dorm has its own house rules – please follow them.
If you have any questions, you are welcome to ask
your neighbours how things work at your dorm.
Health Insurance
You need to buy a health insurance to cover you
during the first 7 weeks after your arrival and
registration. It will take 5-6 weeks for you to get a
card with your Personal Registration Number (CPRnumber)
after you have registered. When you get it
you are eligible to receive health benefits and are
covered by the Danish health insurance system.
Student Handbook 2014 11

Visit the GP (Doctor in general practise)
With the CPR card, visits to the GP, any eye or earspecialist
as well as any hospitalisation in a public
hospital are free. When getting your CPR-number
you choose a GP/Family doctor you can contact if
you fall ill, need prescriptions, vaccinations etc.
Please be aware that you need to make an appointment
before going to your GP and you must pay for
all medicine, inclu_ding prescribed medicine.
Contact Out-of-hours medical service if you need to
see a doctor outside your own GP’s opening hours.
Out-of-hours medical service is open from 16.00-
08.00 Monday – Friday and 24 hours at weekends
and bank holidays. Call +45 7011 3131 for Out-ofhours
medical service to make an appointment.
Dentist
Dental costs are only partly covered by the Danish
health insurance system.
Transportation in Aarhus
The bus system in Aarhus is very efficient. Bus lines
to the city centre have bus stops right outside the
DMJX. Bus timetables can be bought in the kiosks
in town or you can find them on Midttrafik’s webpage:
http://www.midttrafik.dk/in-english.aspx
Ten trip cards can be obtained in any kiosk.
Buy your bus pass or Aarhus Card here:
Midttrafik Kundecenter (Customer Service)
Aarhus Bus Station
Fredensgade 45
8000 Aarhus C
Open monday to sonday 7.00 AM to 11.00 PM.
Phone: 70 210 230
Bicycles
It is possible to look for a second-hand bike for sale
in the classifieds of the local newspapers such as
Aarhus Onsdag, which is delivered free of charge to
all households on Wednesdays.
Alternatively, you can purchase a bike through
Østjysk Auktion (http://oj-auktion.dk). Auctions
are held at Kringelled 6, 8250 Egå. It is possible to
have the auction conducted in English but please
remember to ask Østjysk Auktion a couple of days
before the auction. You have to pay what you bid
plus an auctioneer’s fee.
You can also choose to use the public bikes. They
are to be found all over town maybe used for
a 20 DDK deposit
Social life
Friday Bar
Students at the Danish School of Media and
Journalism have their own bar. It is situated in the
school basement and is open every Friday from
14.15 until 24.00.
The bar is managed by student volunteers. In the
beginning of each semester new volunteers are
looked for. Approximately ten are required and
international students are welcome.
School parties
The Danish School of Media and Journalism
arranges two big school parties every semester.
They are held in the school canteen and are very
popular.
Studenterhus Aarhus (The Student House)
During the first week of introduction, international
students get introduced to Studenterhus Aarhus
and the Association of Erasmus Students.
Studenterhus Aarhus is the meeting place for
foreign students and Danes. It is a place where you
can relax when you are not studying or working.
It has years of experience in organising social
activities, advising and providing practical
information to foreigners living in Denmark. It is a
non-profit, non-religious and non-political
organisation. The aim of the student house is to
promote international understanding by providing
a relaxed atmosphere for social and cultural
interaction and exchange.
