Contribution to Programme Learning Goals:
LO 4: Graduates should be able to conduct business and research in English and in their native language LO 5: Graduates should demonstrate good written and oral communication skills LO 10: Graduates should be capable of directing their own learning processes LO 11: Graduates should be able to think critically and creatively within their domain LO 12: Graduates should be able to recognise and discuss the ethical dilemmas inherent in many business decisions
Contents and Learning Outcomes of Module:
In the third course of the Studium Universale we concentrate on issues of science. After completion of the module, students are able to deeper understand the specific impact of philosophical thought on business studies.
Relation to other Modules/Programmes:
Studium Universale lays the foundations of other disciplines included in the programme by addressing questions in the foundations of science. In this respect, the module is connected e.g. with the courses on Economics. The various courses offered in Studium Universale II, however, intentionally enlarge the usual programme in business studies. The module refers directly to previous and later modules of Studium Universale.
