Marketing Management Student

I believe VIA UC gives really good opportunities to develop within a specific field. I can talk from my experience being a Marketing Management student. The study model is comprehensive with internship possibilities to gain practical knowledge about the subject. I enjoy learning environment as well as lecturers, who can be successful entrepreneurs/experts in their field. The focus is based on group work as well as problem-solving cases. Campus Horsens offers a wide range of places to study, library, gym, and several organisations as AIESEC or student council DSR, that offer extracurricular opportunities. The attached Vitus Bering Innovation Park gives an insight into a business environment which encourages students to participate in innovative challenges or offers support with developing own businesses.

Good reputation

The Danish School of Media and Journalism has a very good reputation. It has a reputation (in Denmark at least) that it is hard to be accepted to the school. There are different educations offered at DMJX and I took a bachelor in communication. It's a broad education which includes 2 times 6 months internships and an international semester. It's 7 semesters long - 3,5 years. I must admit despite the school's good reputation a lot of things didn't go according to plan and at the point, the classes were too easy. The school had bad communication itself; even kept in mind, that the communications education is new there - I hope they have improved this. Other than that it IS a good school, which will soon move to new buildings from the iconic one it "lives" in now.

Aarhus Bss review

First of all, the university is nowhere near as international as it portrays itself to be; there are less international students than you would expect. In terms of the teachers, I can honestly say I had one good teacher per semester. The others ranged from bad to completely unprofessional. Also with the planning of exams and classes, it sometimes made me wonder how the people behind this can be a part of the management department. However, on the bright side, I did like the idea of working in study groups and having to do all sorts of projects - that helps with the practical aspects of teaching. Another thing that I'd praise is the cafeteria, as they offer fresh and diverse food.
