Today, visual media have a greater impact than ever before – they inspire, manipulate, generate emotions and spread faster than ever before. Visual skills are increasingly becoming a key qualification. Michaela Mak has chosen to study the master’s programme Visual Culture. In this interview, the art and culture enthusiast from Finkenstein tells us why she chose the programme and why Klagenfurt, in particular, is convincing.
Maria Kravanja, 21 years old from Villach, studies Applied Cultural Studies (AKuWi) at the University of Klagenfurt. She already spoke to us about her life in her self-constructed Tiny House in an interview. As a First Generation Student, she is the first one to study in her family. She talks to us about the path that led her to study, her professional goal of becoming a scientist and tells us what advice she would like to give to freshers who do not have an academic family background.
Luka Plevnik was Carinthian champion in freeskiing (winter season 16/17) and lives by the motto: Why boring when it can be exciting? The German Studies student comes from Josipdol, a small village near Maribor. He fell in love with Klagenfurt during a semester abroad and decided to stay. Since then, he has been studying the master’s programme German Studies and uses the cities location not only to pursue his favourite winter sports, but also to go hiking or travel through the Alps-Adriatic region. In this interview, he tells us why he finds the German language so exciting and why he has had to laugh out loud several times in the library at night.
