Master degree 2008-2010

I studied my master degree at Aalborg University from 2008-2010. It was the first time my master degree was offered and as always; a new education can struggle to find its feet. So it was very broad topics with the notice; that you could become anything you liked. I had to find my own path in this, but I like the fact that you are able to impact and create your own expertise within a broad field through the semester Projects and problem-based learning. It wasn't as hard as I had imagined (coming from a different type of education). I liked the freedom and requirement of independence that the program offered. I had a good experience; I know that program I studied have developed a lot since then and I think it has been for the better; some of the structure and topics we lacked are now a part of the program.

Nothing special honestly. It's just a very ordinary institute some history but overall it lacks a lot of potential attributes that make a great place to learn and grow. It could be run better then it is.

KU review

In my opinion, the classes, teachers, and campus all stand out as original, well maintained and affordable even if part Ivy League- essentially all as a stand alone…….
