After a kick-off session, a selection of psychological, social, behavioral and organizational concepts and models will be introduced and explained during a series of lectures. Students can familiarize themselves with the concepts in the afternoon tutorials. An individual exam to assess the theoretical concepts and models offered in this block will take place at the beginning of the second week.
In the second week, the emphasis lies on experiencing change, applying theoretical knowledge and critical reflection. Students will take part in case study discussions, a simulation and attend guest lectures. The guest speakers will elaborate on the organizational and behavioral challenges involved in the practice of the energy transition. In small groups, students will write a group report in which they critically reflect on their experiences offered in the second week, show they are capable of applying theoretical models and concepts and formulate effective strategies to mobilise themselves and others to effectively realize the energy transition.
