Low Cost / Free online Masters programs from Germany
#1
I was looking through the DAAD website and found they have a list of online Masters programs in Germany. 

Some of them are tuition free, but require a semester contribution that rages from 300-600 EU

Below are what I found.

MSc in Ed Tech

MSc in Media and Communications Science

https://www2.daad.de/deutschland/studien...b_overview

MBA (there's a 800 EU semester tuition fee)

https://www2.daad.de/deutschland/studien...#tab_costs

I've not gone into detail on the programs. Might do it later when I have time.

You can search for more on the DAAD website.

The curriculum looks a lot like what you would see in a public history, museum studies, or heritage conservation grad program in the United States.

Nice find.  In English and state-recognized as well (not a propio or unofficial degree).

Wow, this is the exact program that I helped a Korean friend enter 7 years ago! We both worked for a UNESCO-affiliated school at the time, and she was drawn to the program to learn more about world heritage conservation. Could be a great option for someone interested in this or any of the other fields you brought up.

As far as I'm aware, you can't currently get a degree from Finnish universities entirely online, at least not for free, but you can take classes: https://degreeforum.miraheze.org/wiki/XAMK

Scandinavian countries are free for EU citizens only and full price for international. Correct me if I'm wrong.
Master in Decision analysis and Data science from Stockholm University is free for EU citizens and entirely online.
