    Linja er et pilotprosjekt, og du som stipendiat vil ha stor påvirkningskraft for utforming og retning for linja i framtiden.

    Som en stipendiat på Media og Markedsføring får man god erfaring og innsikt i hvordan man kan bruke sosiale medier til markedsføring. Sammen med ansatte får man delta på alt fra idémyldring, strategi, analyse av resultater, fotografering, filming, redigering, etc. En vil få både faglig veiledning og lederveiledning. Veiledningen vil både være rent tekniske, men og refleksjoner av mer etisk karakter. En får og være med å planlegge og gjennomføre en road trip til videregående skoler, og delta på utdanningsmesser. Som en del av opplegget vil og og følge ulike linjer for å dokumentere det de holder på med.

    I tillegg til å være stipendiat på Media og Markedsføring, følger man en annen linje 2-3 dager i uka. 

    Som stipendiat har man og noen oppgaver utenom skoletid. 

    Det er ønskelig at du:

    Økonomi: 

    I denne perioden har du valget mellom ulike turer. Alternativene blir presentert i starten av året, og du får begrenset med tid til å velge, så sett deg inn i turene i forkant. Om det skulle skje at det er få som velger samme alternativt som deg, vil det kunne påvirke både pris, og hvorvidt turen blir gjennomført eller ikke.

    Pris og destinasjon kan bli endret til skolestart.

    Optional trip: Copenhagen, Denmark

    Price: Included in course price

    This is one of the 3 group trips you can choose from. It takes place in March/April. You choose the trip after you have started school (The cost is included in the school fee - so this trip does not cost anything extra).

    Copenhagen is a vibrant capital with a European flair. There are many opportunities here!

    Lonely Planet named Copenhagen the best city in the world to visit in 2019. If you choose to join us to the “King’s City,” you might understand why.

    We stay very centrally, within walking distance to most of what the charming capital is known for: bustling street life, cozy cafes, happy people, peaceful parks, magnificent architecture, beautiful streets and alleys, exciting art and cultural life, shopping, and Tivoli.

    The Copenhagen Card is included, giving you access to free public transport and about 80 attractions and sights. Some activities we do together, some in groups, and some you can choose freely. Together, we create a program that is educational, exciting, and unique.

    Since the price for Copenhagen is included in the school fees, this is a budget trip. But you will see and experience that it is entirely possible to have a rich and unforgettable trip without it costing too much.

    Optional trip: England

    Price: 10 500

    This is one of the 3 group trips you can choose from. It takes place in March/April. You choose the trip after you have started school (This trip costs an additional 10,000).

    Join us on a rich journey you will not soon forget! We travel across England. From the port city of Liverpool to the capital London. Experience musicals, Stonehenge, Oxford University, Silverstone Racetrack, and the city of London itself! This is a trip for those who want to see and experience a lot!

    We start the trip in Liverpool, where we visit the Beatles Museum, the Merseyside Maritime Museum, and try to schedule the trip on a match day so that those who wish can get tickets to a Liverpool match at Anfield! We then travel to Birmingham, where we both explore the city and attend a musical together.

    Next, we travel to Silverstone, a renowned Formula 1 track, where we visit the motor history museum. Here you have the opportunity to book a drive on the track in beautiful supercars! (This is paid for by the student if desired).

    We then visit Oxford University, where we get a tour from local students, before traveling to see perhaps the world’s most talked-about mystery: Stonehenge. The trip ends in London, where we have plenty of time for sightseeing, shopping, and exploration.

    This is a fantastic opportunity for those who want to experience the best of England!

    The trip may vary slightly from year to year. This outline is based on the trip in March 2025.
