Learning outcomes of the course unit
An understanding of what influences and forms professional management today and in the future. What theory (proved in practice) directives may be relied upon in order to freely and conscientiously manage.
An understanding of what we are doing when we communicate and why we think the way we do.
What is expected of managers today.
History of practical management.
The main idea is: On a background of theory to prepare students for the transition from the high school routine to higher education, independently and responsibly in thought, deed, rise and evaluation. To spur consideration of what they want, how to achieve it and what is needed.
Mode of study
This is an all-day block course. The students learn what is important for further work in the Critical theory basics course, though there is less practical work in the first course. The intent is for the students to consider fully, and unlearn the desire for following physical data but to go through things themselves. It is evaluated during the course whether all the students understand the pre-set context and if the course is beneficial.
Prerequisites and co-requisites
This is a one semester bachelor study course. No other course requirments.
