In the first year four thematic courses are offered, which cover environmental sustainability themes that represent the most urgent sustainability challenges in terms of the extent to which planetary boundaries are being surpassed. In addition, the programme distinguishes overarching governance themes. Each course has a practical skills component and an Integrated Group Assignment. For the IGA, you will form a team with fellow students and work on an assignment based on real life cases.
objectives
After completing the programme, you are able to analyse complex issues from both natural sciences perspectives and governance perspectives and know how to integrate these perspectives in order to implement solutions in the public domain for a sustainable society. You have acquired a wide variety of skills, including technical tools, governance tools and transferable skills.
