What to expect
What to expect
New in 2018 is that we start in English from the first year onwards. So you immediately get the full-blown international experience.
The first year serves as a general introduction to the world of communication. You will develop English language skills relevant for communication professionals. You will work on real projects for real clients and follow masterclasses from the experts in your field. From insights to strategy in international communication, design and trends. You name it!
In the first, second and third year you and your fellow students will have the chance to go abroad. In the third year even for a 15-weeks internship. London? New York? Shanghai? Ambition is your middle name. After 3 years, you have mastered all the skills and knowledge required to start a career in international communications.
