Risk as an Interdisciplinary Field of Learning
On 11 April, the Centre for Interdisciplinary Learning (ZILL) will start two lectures about “Risks of Environment and Food“ and “Risks of Economy and Security”. They are part of the module “Risk”, which began with interdisciplinary lectures in winter semester 2015/16 (responsible for the module: Prof. Marina Münkler). ZiLL co-ordinates interdisciplinary and research-oriented teaching and learning projects. In the modules on research and learning in an interdisciplinary context (or “FLiK-Module“ for short), transversal topics are taken up which deal with complex social phenomena and questions relating to the future that cannot be understood in their entirety using a monodisciplinary approach. In the FLiK-Module “Risk”, students and teaching staff from four faculties jointly research the connections between risk perception, risk communication and risk management. » read more about the FLiK-Module
