Content

In this module, students work partly as individuals and partly in the existing groups to envision the future by formulating relevant scenarios in relation to a research area. While it is uncertain what the future will hold, what should you take into account if you want to anticipate the future, or which trends, social developments and spatial aspects are important in that respect? Formulating scenarios will provide insight into these developments.
 
The objective of this module is to acquaint the students with this method, motivate them to conduct research and encourage them to think outside the box. In this module, the emphasis is on the learning process and the student's development.
