Deutsche Journalistenschule

The Deutsche Journalistenschule e.V. was the first German journalism school. It is considered one of the best schools for journalism in Germany. It was founded in 1949 by Werner Friedmann, co-editor of the Süddeutsche Zeitung. He modeled the school after the Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism, which he saw while visiting the United States of America. The original name of the school, Werner-Friedmann-Institute, was later changed into Deutsche Journalistenschule e.V., which means German school of journalism. In May 2012, the school moved from the former location in the heart of the city centre (Altheimer Eck) to the east of Munich (Hultschiner Str.8), sharing the address with the Süddeutsche Verlag, the publishing house of the Süddeutsche Zeitung.
