A bachelor’s degree in Media & Communication is an entry route into roles and further study in communication, media practice, and related fields. It suits applicants choosing a first degree rather than a diploma or a master’s, because the decision is about starting a study path, not advancing or shortening one.

The institutions in this group are public. One is in Munich, while the others are spread across different cities and smaller university towns. Tuition is published for one option at EUR 450 minimum; the rest need confirmation before you budget, so compare fees carefully if cost is part of your decision.

Before applying, verify the tuition for each programme, the exact admission requirements, and the teaching language. You should also confirm whether the programme content matches the kind of media work you want to study, because the subject can cover different combinations of communication, theory, and practical training.
