Laboratory: Sustainability and Sustainable Development
A.Y. 2020/2021
Learning objectives
The Laboratory "Sustainability and Sustainable Development" is intended for students of this University, regardless of faculty of belonging. It is strictly multi- and inter-disciplinary and pivoted on case studies of incidence and global scope. It has a contextual incidence as well, in that the multi and inter-disciplinary teaching aims at enabling the student to individuate the competences in her/his same institution in terms of sustainability management, in order to better use the skills it is offering in order to better accomplish and disseminate sustainable behaviors
Expected learning outcomes
Via an ascertained attendance at the 75% of the lessons required for the selected credits, and with a final thesis proportionate in its length to the number of credits chosen, is expected to demonstrate the students' comprehension of the essential characteristics of sustainability and know how to apply means and measures of sustainability or evaluate their impact to a case study, even imagining strategies to be applied in the field of study they have undertaken
