- Advertising as a tool for targeted and differentiated organisational communication.

We would like to attract aspiring creative, entrepreneurial, and socially engaged individuals who want to design solutions, launch campaigns, or build ventures that are both innovative and responsive to contemporary challenges.
How to take the exam
During the programme, students are assessed through a variety of methods. The majority of courses are evaluated based on practical assignments completed during the semester, including group projects, essays, and homework tasks. In-class activities such as presentations and hands-on exercises also contribute to the final grade in many subjects. Fewer than half of the required courses conclude with exams.
