This programme is a one of a kind programme which blends many languages and cultures into one unique track. I chose this study after having finished my BA in European Languages and Cultures. Since I chose courses on German, Spanish and linguistics in the BA, I figured doing the MA Multilingualism was the perfect next step. I was not disappointed.For me, the whole experience was learning new people, new points of view and new cultures. You learn to see things from many different angles... If you are into languages and cultures, this programme is definitely for you. It is a study that makes you think for yourself, by making you do assignments in the field and writing papers on interesting topics. You will learn to develop your own attitude towards language and language policies.For me, this has ultimately given me a great job in the field of language research. After being able to do an internship with NHL Stenden Hogeschool, I now get to use Dutch, English, German and even my own dialect Drents on a daily basis, and get paid doing it. How great is that! Keeping that in mind, I see the friends I made while doing this study spread out into a very diverse field of work. This MA does not train you to be good at one specific job, but instead gives you the skills and tools to be able to work in a very broad spectrum within the field of language policy and linguistics.
