.Media from a global perspective
I chose to study this programme because of my fascination with how media shapes our perceptions and influences societal structures. Witnessing the growth of media in my own country made me wish to learn about it more from a global perspective. For me, one of the most intriguing aspects of this study was delving into topics such as media representation, identity formation, and the flow of information. It really opened my eyes to the critical role media plays in and it truly made me confident in my skills of handling communication. Class was always engaging with multiple group discussions and presentations. Being able to study it in such an international environment like that at Erasmus was really fulfilling.
Active participation
However, the journey was not without its challenges. One of the primary struggles was keeping up with different perspectives and working on the thesis. Moreover, some topics that I was previously not familiar with were more challenging than other. The thesis is most definitely a task that requires the most effort and active participation and balancing it with other elements of daily life is what student life is all about.
Despite these challenges, the rewards of understanding the profound connections between media, culture, and society made the journey deeply worthwhile. Eventually, with classes, I have been able to really enjoy my time here. It is an endeavour I would recommend embarking on!
