This column features three alumni and shows you that although they are graduates of the same study programme, their career paths are completely different. Graduated in different cohorts, working in various branches with a wide variety of responsibilites!
In this edition we focus on the graduates of Arts & Heritage. We interviewed Simone Leimbach (Kulturprojekte Berlin), Jonathan Gunston (Coventry University) and Karina Kottová (platform for Czech contemporary art) about their career, ambitions and their time in Maastricht.
