Insgesamt guter Studiengang und Brand
Sehr guter Studiengang für Anerkennung und Brand. Nicht zu schwierig aber umfangreich. Nich recht neu kann viel geändert werden. Allerdings etwas theoretisch und Germanistik bezogen. Auslandsaufenthalt definitiv möglich sowie Regelstudienzeit. Arbeit neben dem Studium auch möglich insbesondere letztes Jahr.
New Program with a great Community
The program is nicely organized, most courses offered are very interesting, and the lecturers are very friendly, approachable and show great expertise in their respective fields. The program also provides, and encourages one to participate in interesting exchange semesters opportunities, which can easily be accredited back in Vienna.
However, the best thing about this program is the community. It is rather small but the students are very dedicated and great...Erfahrungsbericht weiterlesen
Ausbaufähig aber wir hatten eine tolle Zeit
Das Umfeld war familiär und alle waren füreinander da. Man hatte das Gefühl, die Professoren kennen uns schon ewig.
Die Lehrveranstaltungen waren manchmal etwas fad und eintönig, aber im Großen und Ganzen immer lehrreich.
Mit hat das Studium gut gefallen, aber ich wünsche mir für die Zukunft ein größeres Angebot an vielfältigen Kursen. Es war bisher sehr PR lastig.
Sehr neu, gut aber ausbaufähig
Den Master gibt es erst seit 2 Jahren. Die Profs sind sehr bemüht, jedoch kann es organisatorisch noch besser werden. Plus: sehr internationale Kohorten mit interessanten Leuten. Die Kurse sind in Ordnung, jedoch fehlt ein gewisser thematischer Fokus, was man im Master eigentlich erwartet.
