Student-activating teaching methods
All courses use student-activating teaching methods. In addition to lectures and self-study, the courses comprise assignments, tutorials, and practical training in which students actively work with the course content. Developing professional skills (e.g., advising organizations, pitching an advice, mediation) and applying theory to practical problems are central in this track.
In this way you will be trained as a scientist-practitioner who works in a critical, evidence-based manner in the field of consultancy and organizational development.
