The course introduces a work of foreign correspondent. It covers very interesting history of this profession, as well as its current situation influenced by both technological and economic challenges. Also, it uses the practical skills students have from previous courses to simulate the work of foreign correspondent and to ground more deeply their theoretic knowledge about the CEE region by using it in their journalistic stories.
