The follow-up chapter of the Erasmus Mundus Joint Master in Documentary Film Directing Docnomads, now as a Joint Master 'DocNomadsPlus' with a new third partner. Intake for 2025-2027 is now open!
The Joint Master in Documentary Filmmaking is an international graduate programme offered by a consortium of leading universities. Over two years, this full-time master's degree provides comprehensive training in documentary filmmaking—whether your focus is directing, producing, or pursuing an independent artistic vision. Open to students from across the globe, the programme combines academic rigour with hands-on experience and takes place in three vibrant cultural hubs: Lisbon, Vilnius, and Brussels.
Students are immersed within different cultural environments, learning how to make use of their abilities outside their usual social contexts.
Taught entirely in English and taking a practical approach, DocNomadsPlus unique curriculum and supportive faculty aims at expanding students' skills and creativity, while providing an integrated training that combines a focus on the arts with contemporary practices in film production.
LUCA School of Arts is the only University of Applied Sciences (and Arts ) in Flanders exclusively dedicated to art and design, making it unique in the region. As a School of Arts LUCA combines the strengths and expertise of five renowned Flemish higher education institutions for art and design, spread across Brussels, Genk, Ghent and Leuven. LUCA also gives form to the associated Faculty of Arts of the KU Leuven which is an intensive collaboration between LUCA School of Arts and KU Leuven. Whereas LUCA, as a college, is responsible for bachelor and master degrees in the arts, KU Leuven, as a university, is authorized for doctorates. Artistic research is therefore situated at a crossroads, which explains the faculty's associated status. It is an "in-between space", in which the assets of the School of Arts and the Research University reinforce each other. LUCA participates as such on the open day of the KU Leuven. LUCA will be presenting its even full-English MA programmes on its campuses in Brussels, Genk, Ghent and Leuven.
