Course description and aims
Through onsite surveys and literature reviews of environmental problems abroad, students gain a better understanding of the issue with cultural and social background, consider countermeasures, and present the results, thereby enhancing the formation of an international perspectives and linguistic skills. In this course, a research project is established after consultations between the academic supervisor and the student, and accordingly students go through overseas training of one week or longer, or alternatively work on a case study. After completing overseas trainings or the case studies, students compile and submit reports according to a prescribed format. Finally, students present the results of their overseas trainings or case studies in English at the presentation session of international environment case studies.
Student learning outcomes
Students will enhance the following by the end of this course.
1) Professional expertise, international perspectives and communication skills to participate in trainings abroad or to conduct alternative case studies.
2) The abilities to write reports and make presentations of the results of their case studies on the international environment in English.
