• Main methods to promote interdisciplinarity
This is a disciplinary programme with an original approach for this kind of programme.
• Variety of teaching strategies :
Participation from students in courses and seminars is actively encouraged. Students are required to give various presentations followed by interaction with their audience: these may include a presentation on the current socio-economic in their country, different presentations on the progress of their individual projects.
•Variety of learning situations :
Both in courses and seminars students are frequently faced with issues which they can contrast with those in their own countries. The teaching staff and the guest lecturers all have a wide range of experience and students on the programme come from many different countries and have different professional backgrounds : this means that there is a wide range of issues to be tackled.
The production of an individual project on a theme of students’ own choice, most frequently relating to a problem in their own country, teaches students how to gather information, analyze a situation and argue a case with rigour.
