[ENG] Master Programme Integrative Health Science - Kristianstad University (hkr.se)

Hej och välkommen!

Just as I did almost four years ago, you might have tried to research experiences with the Master Programme Integrative Health Science of Kristianstad University (Högskolan Kristianstad) in Sweden. And maybe just like me you realized that there is only limited information out there. Since enrolling in the programme in the autumn semester 2018 (HT18) I have been blogging on this page. Maybe this is even how you ended up here. 

As I am German my blog entries thus far have been written mostly in German. Or for the lack of a better world let's call it Germisch. Unfortunately, this might result in the first excitement of finding information about the programme turning to frustration, as a highly doubt any translation software will do my personal experience much good. Not to mention the frustration when discovering that yes, there is someone writing about the programme and course but not in the language of the course.

With this blog I am trying to change that and provide first hand insight through my googles, enabling you to experience the ups and downs, joys and frustrations, questions and answers through the lenses of my eyes.  However, be aware that this is my personal experience, yours might be a completely different one as our experiences are highly influenced by our backgrounds, perceptions and expectations.

Which is a good point - maybe some more background information about myself would be interesting.
