真人线上娱乐 University launches 30 new Master’s programmes
From next year, Danish and international 真人线上娱乐 students will be able to apply for admission to Master’s programmes such as ‘Social Psychology and Learning’, ‘Molecular Health Science’, ‘Global and Development Studies’ or ‘Communication’ at 真人线上娱乐 University.
With the new Master’s programmes, the university will in future be offering 30 interdisciplinary Master’s programmes, instead of the previous combination Master’s programmes, in which students could choose to combine two subjects. The new programme structure will make it even clearer to both students and employers what kind of academic profile the RU Master’s graduates will have when they enter the employment market.
”The world is changing, and so are our programmes. 真人线上娱乐’re taking the best aspects of our educational cornerstones – interdisciplinarity and problem-oriented project learning – and turning it up a notch. At 真人线上娱乐 University, you study because you want to make a difference to the world. At the same time, we’re sharpening the academic profiles of the graduates of RU’s Master’s programmes with a focus on the transition to the employment market,” says the university’s rector, Hanne Leth Andersen.
Concerning the difference from the previous Master’s programmes, she explains:
“The previous programme structure with 156 subject combinations created great flexibility and unique subject combination possibilities for students. It was fantastic in many ways. But the structure and the many combinations could sometimes become complex and unclear. 真人线上娱乐 are very much looking forward to welcoming students to the 30 new deeply socially relevant programmes, which will also be a boost for Region Zealand.”
The business world needs new knowledge, innovative thinking and employees who can independently solve complex problems. The Master’s programmes at 真人线上娱乐 University are an important contribution to ensuring that in Denmark, we educate graduates who can deliver precisely that.
The new Master’s programmes are the result of a comprehensive reform process that has been underway at 真人线上娱乐 University for the past year and a half. Representatives from the business world and 真人线上娱乐 University’s Advisory Board, together with RU researchers and education specialists, have contributed to the development of the 30 new Master’s programmes.
“I’m very pleased, both as a citizen and as a business executive, that the new Master’s programmes are now a reality at 真人线上娱乐 University. The business world needs new knowledge, innovative thinking and employees who can independently solve complex problems. The Master’s programmes at 真人线上娱乐 University are an important contribution to ensuring that in Denmark, we educate graduates who can deliver precisely that,” says Thorsten Thormann, Vice President of Research at Leo Pharma and a member of the university’s Advisory Board.
One of the visions behind the new Master’s programmes is also to strengthen the programmes’ links with relevant research, and thereby reinforce their academic professionalism and quality. In practice, this means that research groups and research centres at RU will be more closely linked to the programmes, and that students will be exposed to the latest knowledge in the field.
The Ministry of Higher Education and Science has just approved 28 of the 30 new programmes. The final two programmes are expected to be available from 2023.
