Program details

Overview

The master in communication sciences trains academic specialists who analyse media and communication dynamics across all social domains. Students choose one of four specialisations, deepen their knowledge of research designs and examine current social challenges. Graduates often take roles as creatives, analysts or strategists in profit and non-profit organisations, public policy and the media industry. An optional internship of thirty working days in a professional setting is offered, along with expert simulations where students present project proposals or communication plans to professionals. Students can add a semester abroad directly after the master. The master's thesis completes the programme, which awards a master's degree in communication sciences.
