About Culture, Communication and Globalization

Globalization processes are tying closer together nation-states, individuals and various entities below and above the nation-state. Political, cultural, social and economic inter-penetration and inter-dependence have become the order of the day, not least because access to and the development of high-speed information technologies (the Internet in particular) have made it possible for the bulk of the world’s population to communicate easily and efficiently across cultures and borders.

Navigating professionally in this rapidly changing world, and analysing and explaining these complicated, important processes takes highly developed skills and knowledge, which is what Culture, Communication and Globalization offers.

If you envisage yourself as a project manager in an institution, organisation or company that aims to succeed on the international stage and in a multicultural society, and if you are looking for a Master's programme that allows you to tailor your academic credentials to suit both your personal interests and the rapidly changing demands of today's world, consider Culture, Communication and Globalization.

The programme offers graduate students the opportunity to develop their competencies with a view to working in institutions, organizations or companies with a focus on communicative, cultural, social and political aspects of global processes. In-depth courses, all taught in English, are offered in a range of areas in an international environment (approximately half the student population are non-Danish).

An internship of one semester within an institution, organisation or company in a foreign country or in Denmark is incorporated in the programme. Optionally, the internship may be replaced by a semester of study in another study programme at Aalborg University or at another university in Denmark or abroad.

If you appreciate the informal, egalitarian, and high-quality tradition of Scandinavian higher education combined with the advantages of practical, problem based learning, you will find Aalborg University the ideal location.
