You’ll also have the opportunity to learn German, an important skill that can help you land jobs in Germany as well as Austria, Belgium, Liechtenstein, or at many international corporations all over the world.

Media Studies degrees teach students about media channels, focusing on mass-media and its history, content, and social impact. Students learn about traditional (radio, television) and modern mass-media (social networks, vlogs). Typical Media Studies include classes on Ethics and Journalism, Legal Issues in Communication, and Visual Culture. Graduates work as media planners, PR officers, or social media managers.
