Why I Choose to Pursue a Master's Degree?

Finishing my bachelor's studies in journalism gave me a lot of satisfaction. I had learned a tremendous amount of information and skills for my professional career, and I also made good friends with colleagues and teachers. These contacts were very important at the moment to find a job. In university, you study a "specific" field, but inside all of that, I got excited about many other things like literature, investigation, philosophy, sociology, history, economics, politics, and many others, at least inside journalism curricula.
