Om programmet

## About

Sustainable development aims to achieve societal well-being and economic development, while maintaining a balance with the Earth's ecological system. This is a complex task that requires knowledge about facts, perspectives, and norms, as well as methods that can be used to drive and practice sustainable development on local and global levels over a prolonged time. Our interdisciplinary program, centered around Work Integrated Learning (WIL), prepares students to understand the complexity and challenges in navigating sustainable development in theory and practice. The program structure and outline are framed and connected to the overall WIL research environment.

## Program overview

The main field of study is Work Integrated Learning (WIL), leading to a Master of Arts degree (120 credits) in WIL with a specialization in sustainable development. In the program, WIL becomes a lens to explore the relationship between working life and learning, encompassing conditions, organization, processes, content, forms, and consequences related to sustainability. Through WIL, students gain insight in leading, developing, and organizing diverse tasks to tackle sustainable development.

The program's pedagogical philosophy is based on the belief that students learn more effectively if knowledge and skills are applied through internships and authentic workplace activities. This WIL philosophy aligns well with the principles of lifelong learning that are required in a constantly changing world, posed by challenges such as digital transformation and the development of new technologies.

Students will be challenged to write a substantial thesis on WIL specializing on sustainable development as a culmination of their 2-year studies.
