Syllabus
Course overview and goals
Students shall plan and practice activities related to Global Environmental Co-creation (more than a month off-campus). Activities related to each one’s master thesis topic can be included. The aim is to combine the knowledge and skills acquired through the course work with actual experience in the field of global environmental co-creation for achieving certain results. The location of the activity can be domestic or abroad. In addition, since a contract with the company/research institution to which you are dispatched may be required, be sure to consult with your academic advisor in advance about the necessary procedures. Then, the student will need to consult with the company/research institution for making the contract if necessary.
