Welcome to Utrecht Summer School I am delighted to present to you the programme of Utrecht Summer School 2013. This year, once again, we will be offering students from all over the world a variety of academic summer courses that differ in subject, level and duration. We are proud to present various new and challenging courses in our offer. For example, the number of courses offered in the field of medical and veterinary sciences has increased considerably. We are pleased that our excellent cooperation with the Hogeschool Utrecht (University of Applied Sciences) is yet again reflected in a number of summer courses. This year we will again be working together with a wide selection of partners throughout the Netherlands. Furthermore, we are extremely pleased with the outstanding collaboration with our international partners and the resulting courses in not only Utrecht, but several other European cities as well. International students at Utrecht Summer School will certainly find themselves in good company. In 2012, over 2,500 students have come to Utrecht to participate in one or more of our courses. With some 90 nationalities working and studying closely together, students learn to work in an international environment from the start – essential for scientists in an increasingly globalised world. I hope you will enjoy reading this brochure, which is bound to contain something to your liking. I look forward to seeing you in Utrecht this summer. Prof. Dr. G.J. van der Zwaan Rector Magnificus of Utrecht University

Here we are at the start of the 27th edition of Utrecht Summer School! I am very excited for you to see what the summer school has to offer in 2013. Over the last few years we have continued to grow, with a record breaking number of over 2,500 students last year. The result is that we have outgrown the city of Utrecht, and will be expanding north-, westand eastward. In 2013 we will have 3 satellite campuses centered around Utrecht: Nyenrode Campus in Breukelen, De Baak campus in Driebergen, and Woudschoten campus in Zeist. All campuses are within 15 kilometres of Utrecht city centre. Also within a 175 kilometres distance you will find University College Roosevelt, our campus by the sea. Our course offer contains over 150 courses, in all of the university’s faculties and ranging from bachelor to PhD level. Whether you are a PhD student concerned with medicine, a bachelor student with a keen interest in art history, or an international, looking to learn the Dutch language and culture; we have a course that suits your needs. Our course offer also contains an international part; what better way to study business than to study the food- and agribusiness in Northern Italy? What better way to study Renaissance art than to go to the Uffizi in Florence? Of course, your summer school experience does not have to end after a course of one or two weeks. Consider combining a few courses to truly get a feel for your subject. You can find some of our most well known combinations in this brochure in the form of ‘special tracks’. These tracks not only allow you to easily apply for a combination of courses, they also generally result in a substantial discount. If you are looking to combine a different set of courses, go ahead and mix and match to create the ideal course package. This mix of a varied and academically challenging course offer with student housing and an extensive social programme ultimately results in a very exciting summer. Take your time and look through this brochure to find the course that will take you to Utrecht Summer School in 2013. We hope to see you this summer. Drs. Jeroen L. Torenbeek Director Utrecht Summer School

Holland The Dutch combine history and traditional culture with innovation, modernism and an international orientation. While Holland likes to emphasize its highly industrialized features, the Dutch have not let go of their background, often making use of the possibility to go for a quiet stroll along the historic canals that run through town. Holland or the Netherlands The Netherlands is a kingdom. Its official name is the Kingdom of the Netherlands. It consists of the Netherlands itself and Aruba, Curaçao, and Sint Maarten, in the Caribbean Sea. The country’s name in Dutch is Nederland, meaning ‘low country’ and referring to the fact that much of the land is at or below sea level. Today the Netherlands is also called ’Holland‘, a name that is derived from the names of two western coastal provinces, North and South Holland. These provinces were the most developed and wealthiest parts of the country in the seventeenth century and they played a dominant role in the country’s history. Geography Holland is situated in the west of Europe and borders Germany to

the east, Belgium to the south and the North Sea to the north and west. This small country lies at the point where the German, British and French cultures meet. What strikes people most when they first arrive in Holland is the landscape: the country is extremely flat. While there are some hilly areas in the southeast corner of the country, even these barely infringe on the broad, unbroken expanse of sky that is so characteristic of the Dutch landscape. Moreover, water can be found everywhere, in the form of lakes, rivers, canals and the sea. Holland’s relatively small area of slightly over 41,000 square kilometres is home to over 16,5 million people. Society Dutch society is made up of over 190 different nationalities living in its many cities and villages. For decades, the country’s historical ties with other parts of the world has brought people of non-Dutch origin to settle in Holland, which makes the Dutch generally openminded, freedom loving and tolerant towards foreigners. This cultural diversity has made Holland a place where knowledge, ideas and cultures from all over the world come together. Although Dutch is the national language, the majority of the population also

speaks English and very often another foreign language, such as German or French. Mentality The Netherlands is a ‘self-service country’. The Dutch try to manage most things themselves, which makes them very independent and organized. Another distinctive characteristic of the Dutch is their openness and direct manner of acting and speaking. You will notice that you can say exactly what is on your mind, as the Dutch are not easily offended. Dutch society is organized in a nonhierarchical way. For example, teachers tend to be very accessible and true interlocutors for their students. You will be on familiar terms with everybody in almost no time.

Utrecht city The history of the city goes back to 47 AD when the Roman emperor Claudius ordered his general Corbulo to build a defensive line along the river Rhine, which was the northern most border of the empire. One of the strongholds (or Castella) along the river was built at a crossing in the river and was called Traiectum (which means crossing place). In the local language this became Trecht, UutTrecht (lower-Trecht) and later Utrecht. At the place where once the castellum stood now stands the Dom church built in the 13th century. Nowadays, Utrecht is a lively city in the geographical centre of the Netherlands. It is not only an important junction where traffic, trade, distribution and services meet and mingle, but also a true knowledge centre: apart from Utrecht University and the HU University of Applied Sciences, it houses important research institutes and several other institutes of higher education. With its 300,000 inhabitants,

Utrecht is the fourth largest city in the Netherlands and with no less than 70,000 of the inhabitants being students; Utrecht is a true student city. Several canals crisscross the city and encircle the city centre. The Dom tower is the focal point of the city: with a height of 112 meters, it offers a magnificent view over the city. To the south of the Dom is the city’s museum quarter. There you will find a varied offering of excellent museums in a setting of picturesque courtyards, unexpected small restaurants and delightful little shops. Along the canals you will find a rare phenomenon, of which Utrecht citizens are extremely proud: the wharves. These wharves, which provide direct access to cellars, were used for the loading and unloading of ships and the storage of goods in the Middle Ages. These days, they are mostly used as outdoor terraces for restaurants. Sitting by the water, you can enjoy a drink or a meal looking over the decorative lit canal.

Utrecht Summer School The Utrecht Summer School started in 1987, with one course: Dutch Culture and Society. In the last two decades, the summer school developed a broad selection of over 150 courses in virtually all disciplines Utrecht University and the HU University of Applied Sciences have on offer. In 2012, Utrecht Summer School attracted over 2500 students from over 90 different countries; as such it is the largest academic summer school in Europe. The programme is characterised by strong, academic courses in a variety of subjects. For most of the courses ECTS credits are rewarded.

unforgettable stay in Utrecht and the Netherlands. Therefore, parallel to the study programme, a social programme has been set up which includes excursions, sports, social gatherings and festivities.

Within the framework of Utrecht Summer School, both Utrecht University and HU University of Applied Sciences offer courses in a wide range of topics on various levels.

Utrecht Summer School is a cooperation between Utrecht University and HU University of Applied Sciences.

Higher education in the Netherlands The education system in Holland is known for its high quality in education and research and its international study environment. In addition, with 1,560 international study programmes and courses, it has the largest offer of continental Europe. Holland has two main types of higher education. Research universities focus on the independent practice of research-oriented work in an academic or professional setting, while universities of applied sciences are more practicallyoriented, preparing students for specific careers.

Utrecht University is a research university comprising of seven faculties which collectively span the entire academic spectrum in teaching and research. Founded in 1636, the university is now a modern, leading institute enjoying a growing international reputation. In the prestigious Shanghai Academic Rankings of World Universities 2012, Utrecht University ranks 1st in the Netherlands, 12th in Europe and 53rd worldwide. Utrecht University offers a broad range of 45 undergraduate and 175 graduate programmes, the latter including many English-taught programmes. There are more than 30,000 students at Utrecht University and 7,500 members of staff. Every year, more than 2,000 international degree-seeking students and international researchers stay in Utrecht for variable periods of time. Utrecht University is linked to the names of many prominent

academics among whom are Buys Ballot, Donders, Rudolf Magnus, Van Unnik and Freudenthal. The list also includes Nobel Prize Winners such as Gerard ‘t Hooft from the Faculty of Physics and Astronomy. More information: www.uu.nl/EN

HU University of Applied Sciences (HU) Hogeschool Utrecht University of Applied Sciences (HU) was founded in 1995, the result of a merger of several independent institutions. The HU is the third largest university of applied sciences in the Netherlands. It has over 38,000 students (including 1200 international students) with more than one hundred different nationalities. The HU offers a wide range of courses spread out over nine principal themes. Most of the 80 programmes lead to a Bachelor’s degree, and some lead to a Master’s degree. Several programmes are taught in English.

European Cultures and Identities

European History: From Nationalism to Globalisation

Faculty of Humanities (UU)

Faculty of Humanities (UU)

This course offers an introduction to Europe, a continent of great diversity. Each of its countries and peoples carry their own cultures, religions, traditions and languages, yet the majority of them are now engaged in a joint project aimed at political and economic integration in the European Union. This course aims to introduce you to the main challenges and opportunities of this project. Students will analyse topics such as the emergence and construction of national identity and culture; processes of globalisation and internationalisation and their effects on local cultures; and different national approaches to social issues.

This course explores the main intellectual, cultural and political traditions of Europe. Lecturers in the fields of history, philosophy, religion, art and other fields in the humanities will introduce students to key issues in European civilization from the emergence of European nationalism to the present. Among the topics to be discussed are the economic crisis and the role of state governments; the many global interconnections and dependencies of globalisation, and the trans-Atlantic ties between the Old World and the New World. dr.

Europe and the US: Transatlantic Relations in the Modern Age

Meaning, Spirituality, Ethics and Healthcare Management

Faculty of Humanities (UU)

Health care as business is a major metaphor in the current debate in the Netherlands. Another important development is that of quality of care, often operationalized in procedures and protocols. In policy documents on health care we rarely find concepts as meaning, spirituality and ethics. Nevertheless these concepts are crucial in humane care. Spiritual carers see themselves as advocate of this humane perspective in health care. Is it possible to combine both movements, that of rationalization and that of humanization? In the program you will reflect on this question. The focus is how spiritual care and ethics can contribute to both aspirations in the multidisciplinary care for patients and in management of the institution.

This course will examine the history and current dynamics of the transatlantic relations between Europe and the United States. This course will analyze the most important encounters against the long-term trends and changes in relation to the economic power, cultural acceptance, and scientific and technological impact of the United States as reference culture. The course will also focus on the political relationship between Europe and the United States during and after the Cold War. Students will explore the historical, political, economic and cultural ties between Europe and the United States. dr. Jaap Verheul & drs.

Italian History of Art

Art & Design

Faculty of Humanities (UU) in cooperation with The Dutch University Institute for Art History in Florence Florence, originally founded by the Romans, was governed by the Medici family for centuries. Most of them had a passionate interest in painting, sculpture, architecture and literature. Florence still keeps an exceptional artistic heritage which is marvelous evidence of its aged culture and the part the Medici played in it. Florence is the most marked example of Renaissance cities in Italy. Nowhere else in Italy does one find this multitude of buildings and works of art from this period. Seize this opportunity to travel through the centuries-old history of Italian art in only one summer!

Nothing Is What It Seems: Dutch Art of the Golden Age Faculty of Humanities (UU) Until recently, Dutch art of the Golden Age was seen as technically good, but not very interesting. It was considered too realistic; where was the artistic imagination? Today, this opinion on Dutch art has changed and the value of Golden Age artworks has soared. So what is the true meaning behind all these seascapes and still lifes that look so real that you can feel the sea-breeze and smell the grapes? Discover what is so special about Dutch Golden Age art; in this course you will embark on a fascinating journey where nothing is what it seems.

From Van Gogh to Picasso: Modern European and Dutch Art

Art in Germany from the Middle Ages to the 20th Century

Faculty of Humanities (UU)

This course will introduce Berlin’s outstanding art collections, with their wide range of masterpieces from late medieval times to the present day. We shall focus on the particular circumstances that shaped the production and reception of German art, especially during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. During this long period, the formation of a German nation state and the problematic notion of a German national identity became intimately connected to the question of German style and artistic ‘expression’. A special focus will be given to the ‘Art of the two Germanys’ between 1945 and 1989.

Many people feel at a loss as to how to approach a modern artwork: it is too abstract, too strange, and they feel locked out from being able to interact with it. Dutch modern art made a unique contribution to the whirlpool of European modern movements, but some artists are barely known to an international audience. This course tackles both issues: it provides you with tools to understand and experience modern art and provides you with both a general overview of European modern art and a specialist one of Dutch modern art.

Drawing in the 21st Century University College Roosevelt (UU) This fine arts course explores drawing as a permanently developing form of contemporary art practice. The course will take as its starting point divergent approaches to drawing. In the form of workshops, led by internationally acclaimed artists, a variety of approaches to drawing will be explored, and assumptions about the uses and practice of drawing will be challenged. The course thus offers students the opportunity to explore drawings’ potential; not just as an aesthetically driven activity, but also as a tool for communicating theoretical concepts and personal ideas. dr.

Evolution of Language Faculty of Humanities (UU)

Language

Human language is complex and results from interacting simpler systems, which each may have had a long evolutionary history of its own. Nevertheless, the way these modules are integrated into a working system has been novel as well as recent. Relevant questions that will be addressed in this course include: Which systems are uniquely human (species-specific) and uniquely linguistic (domain-specific)? Did core properties of human language evolve gradually and adaptively from gestural or vocal systems of animal communication? Or was their evolution saltational and exaptive? What was the primary function of language? Communication or an efficient way of organising cognitive systems? dr.

Faculty of Humanities (UU) This course starts from the introduction of young children acquiring their native language (L1). Then it explores the acquisition of a second language (L2) after their childhood. Major issues, such as critical period, in L2 acquisition will be discussed. The course covers the development of phonemes, syllable structures, stress, intonation and words both in L1 and L2. The acquisition of a variety of languages will be presented. During this course, students will learn how to analyze L1 and L2 data from literature and corpora. dr.

Introduction to Generative Syntax

Bilingualism

Faculty of Humanities (UU)

Ask someone their opinion on bilingualism and you’re likely to hear statements such as: ‘Learning two languages from birth confuses children and impairs their cognitive development’, ‘Bilingual children can’t speak either of their two languages properly’ or ‘You can only become bilingual if you start acquiring your second language as a young child.’ Though common currency among the general public, each of these statements is in fact a myth. In this course, you will discover why this is the case as we review some of the most important findings from the research on bilingual children.

In this course, students will be taught the basics of the theoretical framework evolved from and based on Chomsky (1981). One of Chomsky’s main innovations was to give linguistics the formal tools to study language. The formal tools of generative linguistics enabled linguists to explore the complexity of sentence structure and sentence meaning. The theory accounts for the creativity of human language; the characteristic that makes human language unlike the communication system of any other animal. Topics covered will include phrase structure, complementation, case and theta-theory, and movement. dr.

Psycholinguistics Faculty of Humanities (UU) This course will explore the notion of ‘first-person’ in language, psychology, and neuroscience.

Contemporary and International Conflict Management

Land Governance for Development

Faculty of Humanities (UU)

Faculty of Geosciences (UU)

This course aims to enhance your understanding of violent conflict and conflict management. The course deals with the recent cases of Gaza, the DRC and Sri Lanka as illustrative examples, but also refers to other conflicts around the world. You will learn to map and analyse contemporary conflict, and be introduced to theories that attempt to explain armed conflict. All this serves to sharpen your conceptual and analytical capacities and to familiarise yourself with a number of pertinent issues and tools in conflict analysis and policy planning.

Land is again a priority in international development research and cooperation. New actors – both foreign and domestic – are buying up large tracts of land in developing countries for growing export crops and biofuel crops, but also for tourism, mining, industrial development and nature conservation. As a result, new types of land use may clash with existing land use and local interests. Land governance in developing countries has to find ways to deal with multiple pressures and competing claims. This course will introduce students to the multiple dimensions of land governance in Africa, Asia, Latin America and beyond. Students will acquire the most up-to-date knowledge on new land pressures and learn how to place these in broader theoretical debates.

Mobilities, Globalisation and Development

Contemporary Cities: Challenges & Opportunities

Faculty of Geosciences (UU)

Faculty of Geosciences (UU)

The literature on globalisation has emphasised the notion that the world is getting smaller and smaller, but the various mobilities through which globalisation is constituted reveal a much more complex pattern than simply a shrinking world or global village. Furthermore, different kinds of mobilities connect the world in different ways. This programme will explore how different kinds of mobilities, and the interconnections between them, shape places, development trajectories and livelihood possibilities in distinct ways. Examples of these intersecting mobilities include migration, commodities, money, policy mobilities, collective action, information, and biophysical processes.

On the one hand, cities are economic engines and centres of innovation and culture. They attract people to live, work and study. They are where new ideas emerge, where capital accumulates and where trends in culture, lifestyle and entertainment begin. On the other hand, major cities also have concentrations of poverty, social problems, unemployment as well as pollution, congestion and issues of affordability. While the benefits of urban life are plentiful, these challenges continue to grow. The aim of this two week course is to familiarise students with the major issues confronting European and North American cities of the 21st century and the various ways in which these challenges are being addressed.

This is highlighted through a case-based approach that focuses on the most pressing debates with respect to these problems of human welfare, ecological welfare and animal welfare. These issues are studied using the tools of public policy analysis and with a keen eye to identifying actors, issues and interests that are at stake in all phases of the policy cycle (agenda setting, decision-making, implementation and evaluation).

Developing Inclusive Societies for Youth in International Contexts

Faculty of Social and Behavioural Sciences (UU)

Faculty of Social and Behavioural Sciences (UU)

Innovations and rapid developments in social and biological sciences have resulted in an interdisciplinary approach to unravel the biological underpinning of human behaviour. In order to study these brain-mind relationships social neuroscientists use various neuroscientific methodologies. This course offers an overview and covers the basic concepts and principles of the methods and techniques used in neuroscientific research, which include electroencephalography, structural and functional neuroimaging, non-invasive brain stimulation, hormone administrations, eye scanning and measurements from the autonomic nervous system. Students will be introduced to these techniques and will get hands on experience.

In this course we will discuss new models of youth development and education as related to models of inclusive citizenship for children and youth. Moreover, youth issues, including education, health and citizenship, are discussed in the context of a reorientation on international development policies. Given that older models have failed, and new contexts for youth policy arise, the focus of this course is on innovation within the historical context of what has been tried before. Students will be provided with a comprehensive overview of challenges on child and youth development in an international context, and with possible approaches to face these challenges.

Bilingual Education (CLIL): Professional Development for Educators

Conflict Resolution and Mediation Skills

Faculty of Social and Behavioural Sciences (UU)

Most studies and professions require a vast amount of cooperation. In their cooperation people frequently differ from opinion and hold different priorities. Although conflicts occur frequently, it is common for people to ignore them. At the same time conflicts also offer a chance for unexpected possibilities. In this way conflicts can also be great learning experiences. The aim of this course is to make you familiar with the backgrounds of human conflict behavior and to develop and practice conflict resolution and mediation skills. During the course you will explore your conflict styles and develop and practice several communication and mediation skills; practice and skills are the main focus of this course.

A professional development course aimed at teachers, trainee teachers, programme coordinators, and lecturers working in secondary school bilingual education or higher education teaching through English. Do you want to improve your understanding of content and language integrated learning (CLIL)? Do you want to refresh and develop your CLIL teaching methodology? This hands-on course will develop your CLIL skills, understanding and expertise, and inspire you with a range of practical activities for your CLIL lessons, workshops, or lectures.

Migration, Integration and Ethnic Relations

Global Advertising Adaptation: a Different Smile, a Different Story

Faculty of Social and Behavioural Sciences (UU)

Faculty of Humanities (UU)

Migration has made European countries ethnically and culturally more diverse. Host populations have to adapt to migrants and their religion and culture, while migrants have to find their way in a new and sometimes aversive environment. This course introduces students to sociological and other social scientific theories and empirical research on international migration, reactions of the host society, and the integration of immigrants and their children. The approach is analytical and empirical and focuses on international migration, stereotyping, discrimination, political mobilization, extreme-right wing voting, ethnic segregation in social networks, and ethnic inequality in the labor market.

In the early 20th century (as well as today), global brands tend to adapt their global advertisements for culturally specific consumers. For example, a corpus of USA ads and Chinese ads for global brands of the early 20th century shows that ads originating in USA or Europe are seldom used without alterations for the Chinese market. Usually more substantial adaptations are made than a mere ‘translation’ of verbal parts. In this course we review the literature on this fascinating field of cross-cultural commercial communication. You will also closely follow the developments of the Utrecht-Xiamen project that focuses on American – Chinese and European – Chinese adaptations.

Leadership around the World: Differences and Similarities

Entrepreneurial Marketing

Faculty of Law, Economics and Governance (UU)

If you ask an entrepreneur what skills or knowledge have to be developed in their company, most entrepreneurs will answer ‘marketing’. However most marketing courses focus on the larger firms and the marketing strategies do not seem be applicable to smaller entrepreneurial firms with smaller budgets. The main theme during the course will be how small and medium sized firms (SMEs) can create competitive advantage with the limited marketing resources they possess. Some knowledge on (traditional) marketing is nice to have but not necessary for this course. Materials will be handed out during the course. Guest lectures are offered for free, so is the hard work.

In a globalized world, management and leadership become more internationally oriented too. The different cultures around the globe do not have one universal management style and firms expanding into new geographical areas do not always realize this. This course takes a look at the transcultural gap and ways to bridge it. Our colleagues from Rhodes University, South Africa will focus on questions like: Does global leadership really exist or is it a myth? Can a leadership style from one part of the world resolve conflicts that arise in other regions? What are the differences and similarities between Asian, African, Latin American, North American, and European leaders? What does it take to become a leader of the future?

The world changes and we need to redevelop what is made, how it is made, where to sell, how to distribute, all while taking into consideration the consequences for the world around us. Some entrepreneurial people start their own business, but we also need people who seek opportunities for improvement inside larger organizations in business, government, education and health care. Entrepreneurship is all about creating value, not only in terms of financial returns, but also about improving social and environmental aspects.

The course will focus on the construction of investment portfolios. For people who work in the financial world understanding the concepts of risk en return is very important. The characteristics of individual investments like shares and bonds will be studied. Additionally, the analysis of overall portfolio risk will be a point of focus. Furthermore, attention will be given to individual and collective psychological factors to explain the price movements in financial markets. This field, which is called behavioural finance, is a new and exiting approach to explain events on investment markets.

Summer Institute for International Law & Policy

Visual Legal Advocacy

Utrecht University School of Law in cooperation with WashU St. Louis and Case Western Reserve University School of Law

Lawyers tell stories, usually other people’s stories. Film is a great modality for storytelling. How is this in the legal world? Can lawyers use film to tell their client’s stories? As the quantity of global information grows exponentially, communicating with visuals allows us to comprehend large quantities of data. Digital technologies and images have become more important in every phase of the system; multimodality is the standard in nowadays communication and of course also enters the courtrooms. The course is a mixture of theory, analysis and practical design. In class we discuss the state of affairs of the visual literacy and the use of images in the courtrooms.

This six week-long program will focus on courses related to international and comparative law and the international institutions located in The Hague and Brussels. Courses taught at this summer institute include: Atrocity Law and Policy, International Criminal Law and Procedure, Contemporary Developments in International Human Rights Law, The Law of Whistleblowing in Comparative Perspective, The Legal Regulation of Childhood, Global Issues in Patent Law and Policy.

Advanced Qualitative and Legal Methods in Criminology

Towards New Business Models

Faculty of Law, Economics and Governance (UU)

In order to stay successful companies continuously evaluate and readapt their business. Business models that give insight in the external, internal and dynamic fit of a company can play a role in this continuous redefinition of a firms strategy process. Goal of this course is to give students more insight in the applicability of business modeling: What is a business model and what the added value of it for a company? Why a company’s business models has to change over time? What challenges are 21 century companies confronted with in defining their business model? What are the challenges to transform from one to another business model? The issues will be discussed thereby using existing case material from companies such as TomTom NV, KPN and Microsoft / Intel.

Despite their different backgrounds (mainly from law and social sciences), PhD candidates in criminology often lack an advanced training in qualitative and legal research methods, or a platform where to discuss the methodological challenges within their projects. The course is open for PhD researchers from various disciplines preparing or conducting their fieldwork in the field of criminology. It will combine modules run by staff from the different universities involved in the Doctorate in Cultural and Global Criminology, seminars for discussing readings and research progress, and time to work on their own research projects. dr.

Spiritual Innovation

Business Ethics & Sustainability

Nyenrode Business University

Nyenrode Business University

We are continuously mentally occupied by our work; managers and entrepreneurs often face the constant demands of the outer world to satisfy the stakeholders, employees and the market demands, without focusing inwards on their personal, human needs. Entrepreneurs who started their business with a lot of passion realize that they do not have the energy to manage business growth with all that it involves. They find that just managing takes a lot of their energy and does not leave them the time and energy they need to manage the other areas of their endeavors. These changes require new approaches to management. This course will present a model for spiritual innovation based on a wholesome notion as an alternative paradigm for entrepreneurship.

Sustainability in business is a strategic issue for almost every organization. We firmly believe that it is rapidly gaining importance for strategic innovation, risk mitigation, reputation management and to maintain shareholder value. Ethical aspects of sustainability call for new skills and competences of managers. Sustainable business requires an understanding of the changing business landscape, and can be best understood by learning how leading organizations have put sustainability into practice. This course will provide perspectives from different stakeholder groups as a way to gain an understanding of Sustainability.

Creating Shared Value (Advanced Sustainability)

Law & Economics

Nyenrode Business University Sustainability is having a material impact on how companies think and act. It is a significant driver behind the financial values of companies. Although almost all executives think that sustainability will have an impact on their business and are trying to address this topic, the majority of their companies are not acting decisively to exploit the opportunities fully and mitigate the risks that sustainability presents. Three of the biggest drivers of corporate sustainability investments are government legislation, consumer concerns, and employee interest in sustainability. This case study based course shows you in 5 modules how to deal with those challenges.

Physics of the Climate System

Faculty of Science (UU)

The circulation in the atmosphere and in the oceans is at the heart of the climate machine. Geophysical fluid dynamics, dealing with the properties of flow in a rotating system, forms the core of the summer school. A systematic treatment will be presented, and numerous exercises will help to master the material. There will also be a series of lectures on more specialised topics like chemical cycles in the climate system and their interaction with radiation, glaciers and climate change, coastal processes, etc. Students will participate in small research projects on these topics and will report on the results.

In this course students will be introduced to the exciting interdisciplinary field of nanoscience, its chemical and physical aspects, and its many applications. The fields of nanoscience and nanotechnology depend on materials with critical dimensions in the nanometre range. The properties of these materials depend on the size and shape of the nanoparticles and their ordering in 2-D and 3-D structures. Nanomaterials find applications in a wide range of fields such as device technology (nanophotonics, solar energy conversion, optoelectronics), medicine (sensors, labeling) and chemical synthesis (catalysis). dr.

History & Philosophy of Science: Revolutions in Science

Made Ecosystems (plus optional SCUBA diving course)

Faculty of Science (UU)

University College Roosevelt (UU)

Science is one of the major determinants of modern society. The philosophy of science studies general questions concerning the nature of scientific knowledge and scientific methods, but also includes conceptual analysis of fundamental theories such as relativity, quantum mechanics, evolution and modern genetics. The historical approach focuses on the development of scientific thought and practice in times past. It does not limit itself to the problems, methods and solutions assigned by scientists, but extends its scope to the interplay with cultural, social or institutional features at particular times and places.

The Dutch Delta area has historically been subjected to large-scale human interference, most of which took place in the last 60 years. This has had major effects on the estuarine ecology of this area. In this course we will focus on the (ecological) lessons that can be learned from the large civil engineering projects in this area. We will start with a general introduction of estuarine ecology and a historical overview of the ‘Deltaplan’. From there we will proceed to questions like: What have been the effects of these interventions on the ecology of the area? What are possible solutions to the current problems? And what are the future prospectives of the area?

This course introduces students to the conceptual ideas and mathematical tools needed for infectious disease modeling. The focus will be on the dynamics of infectious diseases, the analysis of transmission patterns in various populations and methods to assess the effectiveness of control strategies. The principles of modeling will be addressed in the first week of the course and expanded to more in-depth level in the advanced second week of the course.

Ticks and tick-borne diseases affect animal and human health worldwide. Tick identification and molecular recognition of pathogens in ticks are key elements in disease outbreak investigations and field surveys. In this intensive practical laboratory course of 2 weeks students perform PCR combined with Reverse Line Blot (RLB) hybridization. RLB is a robust technique, wherein up to 40 different tick-borne pathogens can be detected simultaneously. This technique allows for the discovery of novel pathogens. The programme includes a field trip to collect ticks and training on how to design field surveys, which is highlighted by several international guest lectures.

Pharmaceutical Policy Analysis Faculty of Science (UU)

Life Sciences

Medicines are among the most regulated products in society. From the earliest pre-clinical stages onward, policy makers want to foster the development of safe, effective and affordable medicines for patients in need of pharmacotherapy. When a drug reaches the market, it is the beginning of a process of complex interactions between patients, prescribers, insurers, pharmaceutical companies and governments. Furthermore, the inequity in access to medicines is still a defining characteristic of the global pharmaceutical market place. This course will give insight into current developments in policy making as well as provide a better understanding of the methods available for analysing the effects of policy interventions.

Pharmacoeconomics

Environmental Signaling

Faculty of Science (UU)

Faculty of Science (UU)

Today’s society is confronted with ever increasing health care costs. One of the factors is the cost of drug innovations. Diseases waiting for therapeutic solutions are complicated and multifactorial in nature. As a result, drug innovation has become even more complex, leading to high tech and therefore high cost solutions. The question arises: what is the added value of such high cost innovations and how can it be determined when both benefit and harm are considered? Health economics, and more specifically pharmacoeconomics, aims to provide a neutral scientific approach to this challenge.

Plants provide us with a broad range of commodities ranging from pharmaceuticals to building materials and offer an environment for leisure and recreation. In many ways plants are essential contributors to human well-being and health. Experimental Plant Sciences study the fundamental life processes of plants at different organizational levels, from molecules and cells to whole plants and ecosystems. The goal of these studies is to understand how plants develop and how they function in, and adapt to, continuously changing and often hostile environments.
