Both are part-time, paid positions generally for the duration of the academic year (September to May). Although the names are pretty self-explanatory, here\u2019s a bit about the responsibilities for each:\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Student Ambassadors<\/strong> are representatives of their respective master\u2019s programmes whose main role is to share their experience and connect with prospective students. Main tasks include responding to email inquiries, directing students to resources, leading campus tours, and helping out on webinars or other events representing your programme. It\u2019s common to serve in this role as a second-year student.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Digital Student Ambassadors<\/strong> are representatives of the university and international student experience to prospective students, though we also share information which is more relevant to current students. Each digital student ambassador has a specific domain of responsibility; there are Instagram curators, bloggers, and Chinese channel curators. It entails collaboration with other channels and creativity, and is open to those currently registered for a KTH master\u2019s programme.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Interested in working as an international student ambassador? <\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Although the application deadline for next year\u2019s Student Ambassadors has passed, if you&#8217;re an incoming master&#8217;s student you can always apply after your first year, in May 2023. But, whether you&#8217;re a first or second-year student, if you\u2019re interested in working as a Digital Student Ambassador starting this fall, keep an eye on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kth.se\/en\/student\/stod\/jobb-och-framtid\/extrajobb\/jobb-och-uppdrag-under-studierna-1.1118348\">this application page<\/a> for updates in the coming weeks.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>In the meantime, you\u2019ll still be hearing from Declan, Valerie, and me \u2013 that is, until next year\u2019s digital team takes over in September!<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized is-style-default\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-6827\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.kth.se\/blogs\/studentblog\/files\/2022\/06\/bloggers.jpg?fit=1200%2C960&amp;ssl=1\" alt=\"Claire, Declan, and Valerie goofing around outside KTH Entre.\" width=\"1024\" height=\"680\" \/><\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Happy summer \ud83d\ude42\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>\/\/ Claire<\/p>\r\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This week marks the end of the 2021-2022 academic year!
