Student Media & Creative Industries
While loving my bachelor of Tourism, there was something missing, the creative part. This part is perfectly presented in the master specialisation Media & Creative Industries. In this specialisation, many subjects that I am interested in are connected, and my creative and critical thinking is constantly triggered. The specialisation touches upon a large variety of aspects of the media and creative industries, each using a very different approach, which makes it very interesting to engage with all the different content.
International and engaging
To me, Media & Creative Industries at Erasmus University Rotterdam really stood out. The student population is highly international, coming from all over the world, which is very nice and gives the master an extra layer, and different points of view on all learning material. The discussions in the seminars are very engaging, so you can constantly learn from each other’s ideas and help and encourage each other in this learning process.
Different electives
Another positive for me, is that you can alter the specialisation to your liking with the different electives. These courses are very interesting and super relevant to practice. The combination of theory and practice is something that is reflected in many courses, the learned theory will be applied to real life assignments immediately. Super interesting!
The range of courses, tools and skills brings a lot of opportunities to build a future career suitable to my interests. I am very much looking forward to what future as a Media & Creative Industries professional will bring for me.
