Strategic Input Areas 
and Aims of the Results

The strategic input areas will strengthen the process of realising the vision.

The new tendencies in media development, such as those reflected in the areas focused on by the cultural policy, require a completely new development within the core areas of RSLIS.

Against the background of the long-term agreement for the Ministry of Cultural Affairs’ courses and the areas focused on by the cultural policy, the following strategic input areas have been chosen:

1.              Strengthened Internationalisation

2.              Increased Focus on Higher Education and Employment

3.              A Strengthened IT Level

4.              Children and Culture
