Student Testimonial
Marie from Germany is currently studying the MSc IT Web Communication Design at the SDU Campus in Kolding.
What do you like about your study program?
I like that my study program combines so many different thematic aspects. We learn about Visual Design, Web Development, communication principles, value-based design and so much more. This made the master super diverse and exciting.
Anything that have surprised you?
Everything was absolutely new for me, the country, the language, the university. But if I had to say one thing then I was surprised about the amount of different group works there were and how much fun it is to try out a variety of design methods together.

Any advice for prospective international SDU-students?
My advice for international SDU students is to be curious about everything. It can be overwhelming and maybe even a little bit scary, but if you stay open and curious everything will be so much better!
