Panchanit Sukjirattikal MSc Business Management
"From my role as a Product Manager at a startup e-commerce platform, I came to realise an importance of bridging the gap between technology and business. The modern business world demands more than just technical proficiency; it requires a comprehensive understanding of the market, the financial landscape and the strategic aspects of product development."
Sebastian Duncan MA Creative Music Technologies
"I am pursuing a Master of Arts in Creative Music Technologies. Postgraduate studies are an ideal fit because I want to continue developing my musicianship, technical expertise and marketable skills. As someone who is passionate about composing, performing, and teaching, I also hope to expand my career opportunities with a postgraduate degree."
Sydney Ellis MA Comparative Criminology & Criminal Justice
"I’m currently a Masters in Comparative Criminology and Criminal Justice student. This program appealed to me because it looks at crime in a comparative and international context which is unique for a criminology master's program. As an international student with an undergrad degree in Global Justice, maintaining a global focus in a master's program was really important to me."
Wieteke Windrich PhD Applied Linguistics & Intercultural Studies
"I am currently in the first year of my PhD in Applied Linguistics and Intercultural Studies, where I am researching second language acquisition between German and Dutch. I chose to do the course in Maynooth as I had previously completed the master’s in applied Linguistics and Intercultural Studies and essentially did not want it to end. I pursued a master’s degree to gain employability and expand on my undergraduate degree."
