Content
The primary aim of the course “Society in Transition” is to develop students’ abilities in the domains of application of knowledge and understanding and making judgements by (1) developing students’ understanding of the complex interrelationships between economic, societal, and political realms in the energy transition and (2) teaching them to critically evaluate energy transition as a societal process in a continuously changing socio-political and economic realm, (3) which is driven by a variety of societal, economic, and political interests and visions about the energy transition and the interplay between them. Within this course students are asked to take responsibility for their own personal learning process and to actively engage in activities of community of learners.
