Kurser

Nu har jag äntligen fått bekräftat från UTS vilka kurser jag ska läsa! :-) Jag sökte ju en hel hög med kurser, sedan har det tagit några veckor för dem att bestämma vilka jag får. Några av dem som jag sökte blir inte av och några av dem saknade jag vissa förkunskaper för. Men dessa fyra kommer jag att läsa under den första terminen i alla fall:
 
Organisational Learning and Change: Local and Global
"In this subject students study three arenas where there are intense efforts to lead andfacilitate change. The first arena is organisational management with a focus on improvingorganisational learning, performance and productivity. The second arena focuses on workersand community groups that are concerned also about quality of life, work conditions andcorporate social responsibility. The third arena is that of large organisations seeking to leadand facilitate change for environmental sustainability. The subject is designed to provide acounter-point to the widespread interest only in changing organisational effectivenessthrough the development of people (or 'human capital')."
