As my course was a social science course in Adult Education for Social Change, It was a very intense research-based course with a lot of reading, assignments and a master thesis and placement in an NGO non-paid. The curriculum was good but I would like to have a more practical approach as well, for working in NGOs as well, we need digital and practical skills.

My programme fee was 18000 euros.

My course curriculum is okay, to be honest. I wasn't given any industrial exposure or research experience.
