1.1 Curriculum
Objective:
Provide excellent education for a sustainable future "Integrate sustainability principles into educational programmes"
MEASURES:
- RELEVANCE - curriculum revision and updating - identification of opportunities for incorporating sustainability topics (environmental, economic and social) into the university curriculum, possibly introducing new courses or study programmes, eliminating duplications in the study offer.
- COLLABORATION - development of multidisciplinary subjects/courses provided jointly by several departments.
- AVAILABILITY - clearly identify sustainability-related subjects/courses within the course catalogue, including lifelong learning, link them to the specific SDGs being developed and make them easily accessible.
- QUALITY - in the context of sustainability, develop teachers' competences, knowledge, motivation and support the use of relevant teaching methods and approaches, including foreign cooperation.
- OUTREACH- to promote environmental and sustainable education among professionals, schools and educational institutions.
OUTPUTS:
- Sustainability is an integral part of the MU curriculum, and students have the option of taking a specialised or CORE course dealing with sustainability as part of their studies.
- The offer of sustainability-related courses is clearly visible and accessible to learners.
- The University is developing the competencies of educators for sustainability, and education for sustainability has significant overlap beyond the university community.
- The graduate fulfils the MU Graduate Profile in the field of sustainability, i.e. he/she is prepared within his/her area of expertise to address challenges related to climate change, social inequalities and other aspects of sustainability, applies competences for sustainability (such as critical thinking, systems thinking, ability to take collective action, etc.) and is motivated to take actions and behaviours to promote sustainability in his/her professional, personal and civic life.
- Regular surveys are conducted to validate students' competencies for sustainability among learners, including feedback.
