Student review [#16863] for International Development
at Erasmus University Rotterdam - EUR

My overall experience was challenging! I study a Master in development at the International Institute of Social Studies. The Master excelled my expectations with intensive learning, lecturers, tasks and the content professors delivered. The lessons were completely related to the academic jobs, and the courses open my panorama. However, the program made me re-evaluate my career. I learned about policy analysis, value chains, local development. But, I did not learn technical skills, which are highly demanded for companies, NGO’s and Governments. The institute is very research-oriented and students do not have access to practical experiences.
