Study in the States with the DCU MSc in Marketing

As part of the MSc in Marketing there is an exciting opportunity for three students to spend a fully credited semester at University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.  The students concerned have the opportunity of studying under a distinguished faculty, drawing on a curriculum noted for its fusion of concept and practice, benefiting from one of the largest library collections, and all within the environment of a world-class university.  Founded in 1868, the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign is the state’s flagship university.   In its 2014 rankings, U.S. News & World Report’s’America’s Best Colleges’ rated Illinois as the number 11 public university and its Department of Advertising is widely recognized as being among the most prestigious worldwide.

Vishnu Kumar is a current student on the MSc in Marketing Programme here in DCU, who recently came back from his semester abroad in Illinois. Here’s what he thought:

“As an MSc in Marketing student, I had plenty of great opportunities to learn and develop many of my skill-sets. I was very fortunate to be given an opportunity to do the second semester of my masters in University of Illinois, Champaign. Studying abroad in America has been a fulfillment of a dream. I had the chance to study abroad in America and this introduced me to ideas, cultures, concepts and people I otherwise would not have encountered anytime soon. I would describe my experience as nothing but magnificent.

All of the modules I did were highly relevant and I was fortunate to work with some high profile American companies as part of the course. I believe that my semester aboard provided me with endless opportunities to accomplish goals from both personal and academic perspective. I thoroughly enjoyed my time in University of Illinois as I experienced marketing from a different cultural perspective where the markets and consumers are different to what it is over here. I would take away this experience towards my future as I feel that I am prepared well for the working world from the insights I have gained from my semester abroad.
