Students who show exceptional promise during a regular or professional programme are encouraged to continue their studies in a research programme. Once students are admitted to the Media Studies research Master’s programme, they can transfer credits earned during their previous course of study towards their research Master’s degree. The Examinations Board determines which courses qualify for transfer.
Within the Media Studies research Master’s programme, the Cultural Data & AI specialisation focuses on further developing computational and conceptual skills for the critical study of data and AI. This intensive and selective two-year programme has been developed for students with proven ability in and passion for research.
