URV Experiences

Eduard Mir Neira

“Ahora soy capaz de investigar por mi cuenta, consultar fuentes fiables y de actualidad, redactar un artículo científico e incluso mandarlo a una revista de mi interés”

Fredy Laqui

“The URV has high-level laboratories, which is very important for an engineer because it allows us to put all our theoretical knowledge into practice. And, in addition, living in Tarragona is a very gratifying experience for me. Although it is a very small city, it is very lively and it is a very pleasant place to live. There are also many industries in the automotive sector near Tarragona.”

“La investigación no solo sirve para el mundo académico, ahora tengo las herramientas y los recursos adecuados para aprender de forma autónoma y afrontar nuevos retos profesionales con confianza.”

“De manera inmediata el Máster Universitario en Investigación Avanzada en Estudios Humanísticos me ha ayudado a hacerme una idea de los pasos a seguir para llegar a unos estudios doctorales y superarlos con éxito. Asimismo, he aprendido recursos muy valiosos para aplicarlos en mi investigación.”

Laura Teruel Bellmunt

“Del máster salí con una serie de habilidades relacionadas con la investigación: saber dónde buscar información fiable y de calidad, conocer la estructura y las características de un artículo científico, adoptar un espíritu crítico a la hora de tratar la información, alcanzar estrategias comunicativas.”

Silvia Baget Ramos

“My experience with the Master’s was extremely positive. I had taken a three-year degree in Tourism at the URV in Vila-seca but needed to refresh certain concepts and bring myself up to date with the new trends in tourism. The tourism sector is both resilient and constantly changing and if you want to be well prepared to work in the tourism sector, you need to keep up to date with the technological innovations and new initiatives. I would recommend this Master’s degree to anyone because it teaches the new key concepts we all need so that we can develop our professional careers effectively. What encouraged me to enrol on this Master’s was the fact that, being an official qualification, it would add prestige to my CV. Other key factors behind my decision were the hybrid methodology (part online and part face-to-face), my confidence in the URV Faculty of Tourism, the professionalism shown by the academic staff, and the Faculty’s close relationships with Eurecat and the Costa Daurada tourism sector. I’ve been working in the tourism sector for many years now. In fact, I was able to combine my studies on the Master’s with my position at the Tarragona Provincial Council Tourism Board, where I am still working and currently developing a project on tourism innovation.”

“My experience on this Master’s was extremely positive. I decided to enrol on it after completing my degree in Tourism at the URV. The Master’s gave me the opportunity to further my knowledge of destinations management and begin to develop my professional career. I chose to specialise in destinations marketing and branding because I was really passionate about the subject. All the concepts and practice I gained on my courses have really helped me to expand my knowledge in this area. They have also helped me to further my knowledge and raise my awareness of the sustainability that tourism must promote in the future. Nor can I forget the most personal part of this Master’s as I’ve been able to get to know people from all over and enjoy the numerous cultures and ways of understanding the world that coexist on this programme! So far I’ve been working in the tourism department at Montblanc town hall, which is the body responsible for managing and promoting tourism both in the town and the neighbouring villages of the Conca de Barberà.”

“Getting my Master in International Markets at the URV allowed me to grow as an individual and connect with people from all over the world. The class material pushed me to think harder and think differently about a wide variety of topics concerning international markets and ultimately, this helped me build a world perspective. Without this program, I am fairly certain that I would not be where I am today. Thanks to this program, I feel comfortable conducting and engaging in international business.”

Eileen Mangalam Preuss

“Nowadays all well-known companies operate on a global scale and need employees who can react to the new opportunities and requirements that arise with internationalization. The master program provides exactly this knowledge and enables the students to contribute significantly to the success of a company. In addition, the very diverse structure allows graduates to be prepared for a wide field of job opportunities. The master has helped me personally to further develop my career in the optical industry.”
