"I was lucky to get in!"
Elena Moser from Switzerland studied the Master’s Programme in Language Science with a Specialisation in Typology and Linguistic Diversity.
What did you like most about studying in Stockholm?
"The university, campus and atmosphere in our department. I was a part of the Student Council at the Department of Linguistics. It was a great way to get to know my fellow students, but also to be involved in our programmes. We had the opportunity to work together with our professors and organise workshops that we needed for certain classes. I really had a great time."
What possibilities did your studies in Stockholm open up for you?
"Right now, I work at the Department of Linguistics. I’m involved in some book projects with type setting and editorial work. Most students within Linguistics continue with research but there are a lot of different things you can do. Tech companies that are doing language recognition software programs need linguistics. This is coming up more and more. Many of us are doing translations. It’s very broad."
