The thesis should be a synthesis and further development of the knowledge and competences gained during the three terms of course work in LUMES on top of undergraduate studies. The thesis work should develop…

The course addresses political approaches to and perspectives on sustainability issues and place these in relation to the actual ability to address sustainability challenges. It tackles both central political factors as well the creation…
