Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

Students will get to know the professional fields of geographers in the area of global change and sustainability. Current challenges of global change and sutstainability will be addressed within self-organised mini-projects by applying approaches and specific working methods (e.g. moderation, process design, project management and team work) relevant to practical work in this field. The results of the student projects will be presented to a jury by the end of the semester (including moderation methods, assessment approaches for project success/failure, etc.).
