Elena, a freshman student at Viadrina, studying masters in sociocultural studies. Elena is very happy with her choice as Viadrina offers a lot of flexibility in choosing the areas or topics a student wants to study. She is interested in cultural migration and border studies. Elena has started her program during the pandemic and besides the lack of opportunity to get to know Viadrina in person, she would choose this program again if she has the chance to decide all over again.
