鈥淟ecturers were always available when we needed them鈥�
Syaza Abdur Rahman
A Digital Strategist for BBDO Malaysia, Syaza thought that the programme helped her develop an understanding of聽strategic planning from a theoretical point of view.
鈥淚鈥檓 using a lot of the things we learnt during the programme and actually applying it to the work I鈥檓 doing, like research, interview methods, and even some behavioural economics, which is awesome!鈥�
鈥淩eal work experience instead of just academic learning鈥�
Paula Torres Moneu
Paula is working as a Junior Strategist at Epoch and feels that, after completing the one year programme, she has a thorough understanding of the advertising industry.
鈥淚 would highly recommend the MA Advertising course at 裸聊直播. When I joined the programme I didn鈥檛 have a marketing or advertising background as my BA had been in English, but this course gave a very comprehensive understanding that didn鈥檛 rely on previous experience. It is the perfect introduction to the advertising and communications industry, as it allows you to explore every possible area you could end up working in 鈥� which is perfect if your preference hasn鈥檛 been formed yet.
鈥淚t is also one of the few courses I have come across with a high emphasis in strategy and planning. It is how I was able to land my dream job as a strategist at a branding agency in Bristol 鈥� and after five years I still apply the learnings from the course on my day to day!
鈥淎t Epoch we are very involved in social and environmental projects for our clients, so when I heard that the 裸聊直播 course had adapted to address these issues I got very excited. That focus shift has resulted in Epoch and 裸聊直播 forming a new partnership to prepare students for tackling these kinds of issues in the real world, which involves our agency setting the students live briefs to give them a taste of what it鈥檚 like and help them land an internship with us. All in all, I couldn鈥檛 recommend MA Advertising and its lecturers enough.鈥�
鈥淎n insight into how an agency functions in real life鈥�
Han Ly
Han is working as a Creative Planner for Square Group in Vietnam. She chose to study the Creative Direction option and believed it provided a valuable foundation for the role she is now doing.
鈥淚n my opinion, most of the knowledge I聽gained from the MA Advertising course is quite realistic and gave me an idea of how an agency functions in real life.
鈥淲hen you are studying, you can slowly form an idea of what you want to do and which direction you want to take for your future.聽My lecturers also created every opportunity for foreign students like me to ask questions if we did not understand it throughout, when English is not our first language.鈥�
鈥淓ngaging and committed professors challenged my status quo鈥�
Toke Bull
Currently working as a Brand Coordinator聽for 72andSunny in Amsterdam, Holland, Toke praises the way in which the programme is organised to deliver insight and learning聽in different disciplines that all help create a foundation for a professional career.
鈥淭he combination of having an academic and a practical/industrial approach helped me give more hands-on learning, which can be transferred into working life after graduation.
鈥淎ll units have a purpose and are connected to each other. From a personal perspective, I believe that the whole year builds up an understanding of strategy and insight with a touch of creative development that was all useful for the Bootcamp and, most importantly, for understanding the ad-world.鈥�
