Transition, Innovation and Sustainability Environments, TISE – European Master of Excellence/Erasmus Mundus Joint Master
New!
The Master of Science in “Transition, Innovation and Sustainability Environments” (TISE) is a newly designed European program with the focus on sustainable and resilient societal, business and industry processes and structures.
Through its strong transdisciplinary approach (i.e. a method guided by mutual learning processes be tween science and practice), students will gain a comprehensive understanding of relevant coupled human-nature-technology systems, positive and negative mechanisms and effects of transitional processes (including underlying obvious and hidden rebound effects), innovation patterns with relevant interventions potential. Using a hierarchical system perspective, the program encompasses the individual agents, teams, organizations, networks, and clusters, within regional, national and supranational systems, and ultimately global implications.
Building on a Complexity Science fundament the program presents an inter and cross-disciplinary view of Socio Cultural Studies, Social Sciences, Economics, Technology and Design, but also integrating communities of practice and the tacit knowledge of practitioners in order to address “real-world” complex problems.
The program promotes transdisciplinarity as an innovative approach towards the challenges encountered by social systems today.
Key Aspects
> Culture and Transition > Ethics and Information Systems > Transitions in Economics > Systems Science and Transdisciplinarity
Master of Science – MSc
Duration: 4 semesters, full time ECTS points: 120 Course fee: EUR 13,500
Target group People holding a minimum of a bachelor degree or equivalent, who have an intrinsic interest in contributing to complex societal challenges by using his/her areas of excellence and interests.

PhD Migration Studies
Migration across natural and political borders has always played an important role in human history. As migration is an integral part of social transformations, internationalization and globalization, mobility and migration have drawn increasing social, economic and political attention, a fact that is also reflected in the European Union’s political agenda.
Migration studies is multidisciplinary and spans areas including politics, economics, civil society, culture and the media. Migration is one of the most dynamic fields in modern social scientific research.
The PhD program in Migration Studies contributes to a better understanding of migration policies, the drivers and dynamics of migration processes, the opportunities and challenges of emigration and immigration countries, and the importance of integration measures towards securing quality of life and social cohesion.
