The Highlights
The Telecommunications and Media Management program is more than lectures! There are a number of events and meetings throughout the year, from festivals and salons to lectures and industry visits -- and they are all organized by students!
Program faculty dig deep into their contacts to set up meetings with high-level professionals, but they also let students organize the program “extras” according to their needs and desires.
As soon as the academic year begins, the program directors host an informational meeting followed by a reception for new students, alumni, and professors that helps kickstart the integration process. Because when you become a student in the program, you also join the powerful alumni network!
All year long, students organize happy hours, receptions, and other events with program alumni and other students in the same field. In other words, students have carte blanche!
