| Dozierende | Patricia Holm (patricia.holm@unibas.ch, BeurteilerIn) |
| Inhalt | The course is offered within the scope of the program "Pathways to Sustainability" (formerly known as "Transfaculty Cross Section Program Sustainable Development/Transfakultäres Querschnittsprogramm TQNE": https://msd.unibas.ch/en/study-programs/pathways-to-sustainability-tqne/). The program consists of 3 introductory lectures with practical courses (lecture A and B are offered in fall semesters, C is offered in spring semesters) dedicated to conveying the foundations of sustainable development. An additional integration seminar (D, offered in spring semesters) engages with interdisciplinary work. The assignment and completion of D requires the successful completion of two lectures from the above mentioned lectures A, B and C. The topic "Food and Sustainability" serves as an integration focus for the entire program and, thus, also for this lecture. The course includes a lecture and topic-specific practical course. While the lecture deals with systematic overview knowledge, the practical course focus' on empirical case studies. |
| Lernziele | The students - know current challenges of Sustainable Development (SD) and are able to present them from a natural science perspective; - have a basic understanding of how different perspectives shape the idea of SD; - know which issues different natural sciences disciplines raise and know their expected contribution to the analysis of SD; - can formulate reasonable expectations towards different disciplines of natural sciences. Students are expected to - understand basic scientific methods in natural sciences; - have fundamental knowledge in natural sciences, which allow a critical appraisal of environmental issues and SD; - are aware of interrelations within the environment and between human and nature; - practice goal-oriented group work. |
