Programme Structure
Curriculum:
- Globalization and major changes in the global environment are presenting modern society with increasingly diverse and complex challenges.
- Dealing with these challenges demands an advanced skillset—the ability to identify quickly and accurately the key issues from amidst complex phenomena, to apply sophisticated research skills to establish the relevant questions, and to synthesize expert knowledge from various fields to create a set of options for solutions.
- A choice must then be made from amongst the options set while building social consensus around that choice through communication, and the chosen option implemented expeditiously with an international perspective.
