Katalogdaten
| Kurzbeschreibung | The ETH Global Development Summer School provides young researchers with the opportunity to work on current and sustainability-related topics in interdisciplinary and intercultural teams. Focus is given not only to teaching theoretical knowledge but also to solving specific case studies. |
| Lernziel | Within ETH Zurich's Critical Thinking Initiative (CTI), students further develop their critical thinking and communications skills including: the capability to analyse and reflect critically, to form an independent opinion and develop a point of view, as well as to communicate, argue and act in an effective and responsible manner. Based on this concept, the ETH Global Development Summer School is providing its students with the following qualifications and learning outcomes: - Interdisciplinary and multicultural competence: Students gain basic knowledge in scientific disciplines beyond their own and learn how to work effectively in interdisciplinary and multicultural teams. - Methodological competence: Students gain basic knowledge of different scientific methods beyond their selected study discipline. - Reflection competence: Students learn to critically reflect their own way of thinking, their own research approaches, and how academia influences and interacts with society at large. - Implementation skills: Students will apply creative technologies in solution finding processes to gain knowledge and prototyping-skills to increase hands-on experience by applying knowledge in concrete cases. This year's event on solid waste management is a collaboration between ETH for Development (ETH4D) and Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST, Kumasi, Ghana), and will take place at ETH Zurich, Switzerland.
