GMU, The First Global Media & Communication University, (2019) Istanbul, Turkey Global Media University's main campus will be ... in Istanbul, Turkey, with branches in other parts of the world. A new university focusing only on different media fields, communication research, and cinema studies would be an innovative way of addressing the future of media impact on societies. Global Media University will start accepting students and professionals during 2019 academic year. It is an initiative - we hope - will prove valuable and rewarding for students, societies, and mankind. Media has always been viewed as a lethal weapon if properly used. The merge between technology and media is taking the media to another higher and more strategic level for any nation. Media is also viewed as an important tool for protecting cultures, heritages, and local traditions in an increasingly globalized world. Our duty at Global Media University would be to help every graduate master success in media/films, and not only acquire knowledge or obtain a degree. Global Media University is not a local university with a global vision. It is rather envisioned to be a global university complementing local’s vision. Global Media University is not a traditional university. It is an echo system for media/films education and life-long learning and skill development. Global Media University offers depth, diversity, and practicality in its approaches to the study of media/films, with a wide range of academic offerings and research interests. Global Media University offers undergraduate, graduate degrees, and professional certificates. All instruction and study material will be in English. Students will spend a year (Bridge Year Program) before joining the general undergraduate tracks to prepare for the university life and pass the minimum language requirements to start their program. read more
