Abstract
The chapter offers an insight into how the master programme in Communication Studies sees and handles challenges in the combination of international students and the Roskilde pedagogical stance. The chapter is written from a planner’s point of view and endeavours to show that it is possible to plan a programme so that students unaccustomed to Roskilde’s brand of PPL will be able to benefit from the approach without jeopardising the principles upon which it is built.
