The course aims are twofold. First, students will discuss urgent societal challenges (e.g. biodiversity loss, climate change, migration, urbanization, water scarcity) and outline how Geography as a whole can contribute tackling these challenges. Second, students are encouraged to reflect their individual interdisciplinary curricula.
Learning objective
The course aims to prepare students for their potentially next career step of entering the job market.
Content
The thematic bracket opened at the beginning of the curriculum and introducing the interdisciplinary approach of geography will be closed. Practical guidance is provided allowing students to identify matching job advertisements, to develop and communicate own strengths, and to prepare application documents.
