Get ready for the demands of a rapidly changing world

The Master’s programme Culture, Communication and Globalization provides you with high-quality education with a strong international profile in the subjects central to the demands of today’s world, but also trains you in solving the problems posed by these demands.

Here you have an active role in designing your personal academic profile, and will not only acquire but also produce knowledge in areas highly relevant to many contemporary professional settings, based on problem-based learning, which is a trademark of Aalborg University.

Culture, Communication and Globalization provides you with an opportunity to gain MA academic credentials at a well-esteemed Scandinavian university in an egalitarian and multicultural student environment that will guarantee you enriching educational and social experiences. 

Problem-based & project-organised work

During the semester you will participate in courses, group work and project work that revolve around complex real-life problems which students investigate and deal with in scientific manners. In close dialogue with an academic supervisor you will select an area of interest, identify and formulate a problem that you will tackle in your project. Through this work you will not only study in depth a particular area relevant to your educational profile, but will also acquire teamwork skills and the ability to work creatively which are in high-demand in professional situations and will give you a head start on the job market.

Tailor your own profile

The MA in Culture, Communication and Globalization provides rich opportunity for creating a degree with a strong personal profile. The programme offers three study profiles:

  • Consumption and Market Communication
  • Organisation and Leadership 
  • International Politics, Migration and Movements.

You may choose to specialise in one of the profiles mentioned above or follow the courses across the profiles, designing a broader academic profile in the field of Culture, Communication and Globalization. All classes are taught in English.

Internship or mobility stay

On your third semester, you can tailor your degree further by choosing an internship in Denmark or abroad. This gives you opportunity to apply the knowledge that you gained in the hands-on experience of working in an international professional environment. Alternatively, you may choose to follow one semester at another programme, at Aalborg University or elsewhere, further specialising in one or more areas relevant to the CCG Master’s Programme.
