Overview

The Documentary Film Directing programme at LUCA School of Arts - Campus Sint-Lucas Brussels was the first film course in the world supported by Erasmus Mundus. Students can apply for travel and accommodation grants.

Curriculum

In each edition, about twenty-four students from all around the world follow a mobility track from Lisbon to Brussels, via Budapest. In doing so, 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, Doc Nomads’ 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.
