Learning outcomes
The student is able to
- understand the role of heuristics and biases in everyday decision making
- explore the fields of behavioral economics and behavioral decision making
- identify and apply psychological factors in business and public policy applications
- evaluate development plans from behavioral perspective
- analyze ethical aspects of behavioral interventions and nudges
Teaching methods
The study unit is completed independently following a recommended schedule for returning assignments and completing the whole course by a given deadline. Self-direction is required. The study unit does not include meetings except an online kick-off lecture on Tuesday, May 21, 2024 at 18.00 -19:00 (EET / Finnish time) in Zoom. No other lectures will be held which enables self-paced learning. You will study in a Canvas learning environment which includes learning material and assignments/tests.
The study unit contains planning and executing a small-scale real-life intervention applying behavioral insights, and analysis of an existing development plan from a behavioral perspective. You will also engage in discussions with other students in an online forum by posting conversation starters and commenting other students’ texts about different topics you have studied about. Otherwise, the study unit does not include working in pairs or groups.
You will receive individual feedback for some of the assignments from the teacher at the end of the course. During the course the feedback is based on automated assessment, and when applicable, giving out model answers after the assignments have been returned. Peer feedback is also utilized.
As a rule, the use of AI is permitted and its utilisation must always be disclosed. Sources must always be referenced, even if the text was produced with the help of an AI. The use of AI must be clearly indicated in a text whenever it is utilised in the production or editing of any texts or images. Remember to also explain how it has been utilised, for example in reading information sources and analysing material.
You can reach the instructor at the beginning of the course before mid-June and again after the end of the course. You and reach your fellow students through the Q&A discussion board on Canvas platform and you can also use the Canvas Inbox or email messages.

Alternative completion methods of implementation
According to the degree regulations (2024), "Students are entitled to apply for recognition of prior learning regardless of where, when and how the competence has been acquired. ... At Laurea, there are two different procedures for the recognition and accreditation of prior learning: a) accreditation of prior learning (competence acquired in higher education studies at another institution) and b) demonstration of competence (competence acquired in other ways). The recognition and accreditation of prior learning is initiated by the student themselves. The student is responsible for demonstrating and verifying their competence. The student is entitled to guidance for the recognition and accreditation of their competence." Further information in the student intranet.
You may also assess work-based learning as a way to acquire the competence needed. Read more in the student intranet.
Co-operation with working life and/or RDI
The study unit includes a practical exercise where the students are encouraged to solve practical problems at their everyday life, and to further consider their developmental work.
Important dates
Based on the degree regulations (2024), the student accepted for the implementation is required to confirm his/her participation by showing activity at the start of the study in the following way: In order to demonstrate activity, the student must be present at the first contact lesson or notify the teacher in charge of his/her absence to confirm his/her participation in the study. Registration will be rejected if the student does not report his/her absence at the start of the study or the reason for the absence cannot be considered justified. Another student can be taken in his place. The first contact lesson is the recommended kick-off lecture on Tuesday, May 21, 2024 at 18.00 -19:00 (EET / Finnish time).
The study unit is divided into 5 modules. The deadline for completing the whole course is August 11th, 2024. Students are strongly recommended to follow the given schedule with suggested assignment deadlines to ensure steady progression.
Retake deadline is September 15th, 2024.
Forms of internationality
Use of international academic literature. International student group.
Students workload
Due to the special nature of grading logic with is based on the completed number of modules (see details further below), the total amount of effort per student may vary substantially. As a rule of thumb, modules 1 and 2 requires more effort than rest of the modules. Notice that for the intervention assignment in module 4 you may need to plan several days or weeks to be completed properly.
Content and scheduling
In this course you will learn the basics of behavioral economics and how behavioral insights are applied in business and public policy context. You will gain understanding on behavioral biases and heuristics that are apparent in human behavior. Nudges and choice architecture are introduced as a mean to change people's behavior.
The study unit is divided into orientation module and five learning modules:
Module 1: General overview of behavioral insights in business and public policy
Module 2: Deeper into behavioral insights
Module 3: Ethical perspectives of behavioral interventions
Module 4: Behavioral insights into action
Module 5: Applying behavioral perspective
Further information for students
The study unit corresponds to the requirements of Master's level education.
The prerequisite for participation is always that the possible competence prerequisites according to the curriculum (previous study or similar competence) are fulfilled. The student is responsible for taking into account the prerequisite conditions.
Students of the Master's programme Behavioral Insights and Choice Architecture (Päätöksenteon ilmiöt ja valintamuotoilu johtamisessa) are not eligable to apply to this study unit.
The quality of the study unit implementation has been assessed and the self-evaluation report is available for example in Canvas or Teams.
Grading scale
H-5
Evaluation methods and criteria
"Competence assessment is based on the descriptions of objectives in the curricula, and the level of competence is assessed according to the assessment criteria listed in the implementation plan for the studies" (Laurea degree regulations 2024).
The course will be evaluated on a scale of 1 to 5 / fail. Minimum requirement to pass the course is that you complete the Orientation and module 1 by August 11th, 2024. Your grade will be defined based on the number of modules that you have successfully completed. Each module will be evaluated on a Pass/Fail basis. All tasks that are mentioned in the assignment descriptions need to be completed according to the instructions to pass the modules. Assignments are evaluated on a complete / incomplete scale or in points (multiple choice tasks). To pass a multiple choice task (quiz) the student needs to score at minimum 70% of the points. The teacher will complete the grading of the assignments and tasks by Friday August 23rd, 2024. At this stage the teacher might ask you to complement assignments that have not been completed at a sufficient level. You need to complete the requested assignments successfully by September 15th, 2024.

Content and scheduling
New technologies and new business models have already changed the way organisations interact with their customers and soon developments such as AI, robots and virtual reality will be a completely normal part of the customer experience alongside face to face engagements.
Managers will need to understand new ways to design customer experiences across the digital, physical and social ‘spaces’.
This course brings together designing and managing customer experience in the digital era, drawing on the latest work from the Cambridge Service Alliance. The course incorporates the practical use of frameworks and methods developed in Cambridge that have been tried and tested with over 350 companies worldwide

Content and scheduling
Starting your own business is not for everyone. For someone who needs security, paid work might be the smartest career option. However, it does not rule out the possibility of co-ownership. Acquiring a partnership is significantly less risky than starting your own company and is suitable for a wider group of people. It is one way to realize entrepreneurial dreams, but without the uncertainty that comes with entrepreneurship. Co-ownership is at its lightest like paid work, but with entrepreneurial benefits. You can even practice co-ownership as a side business, in addition to paid work.
From the point of view of owner control, companies can be divided into three categories: startup entrepreneurship, traditional entrepreneurship and buyout entrepreneurship. The course introduces the main differences between these three forms of entrepreneurship from the point of view of the co-owner and offers tools and ideas for starting your own partnership path.
After the course, the student can:
- analyze the key differences between business forms (startup, traditional and buyout entrepreneurship) and evaluate the suitability of business forms, taking into account your own life situation
- categorize the multiple roles of a co-owner in different business forms (startup, traditional and buyout entrepreneurship) and analyze the most suitable role for yourself

Content and scheduling
Starting your own business is not for everyone. For someone who needs security, paid work might be the smartest career option. However, it does not rule out the possibility of co-ownership. Acquiring a partnership is significantly less risky than starting your own company and is suitable for a wider group of people. It is one way to realize entrepreneurial dreams, but without the uncertainty that comes with entrepreneurship. Co-ownership is at its lightest like paid work, but with entrepreneurial benefits. You can even practice co-ownership as a side business, in addition to paid work.
From the point of view of owner control, companies can be divided into three categories: startup entrepreneurship, traditional entrepreneurship and buyout entrepreneurship. The course introduces the main differences between these three forms of entrepreneurship from the point of view of the co-owner and offers tools and ideas for starting your own partnership path.
After the course, the student can:
- analyze the key differences between business forms (startup, traditional and buyout entrepreneurship) and evaluate the suitability of business forms, taking into account your own life situation
- categorize the multiple roles of a co-owner in different business forms (startup, traditional and buyout entrepreneurship) and analyze the most suitable role for yourself
- compare the practices of acquiring part ownership in different business forms (startup, traditional and buyout entrepreneurship)
- analyze the logic of prosperity and related tax practices in each form of entrepreneurship (startup, traditional and buyout entrepreneurship) separately
- calculate ownership changes and the probability of prosperity in practice

Students workload
The course consists of the following assignments:
Discussion about different resilience concepts (group assignment)
Five modules with quizzes based upon reading material (individual assignment)
Article written as a group assignment
Content and scheduling
Perspectives on resilience taps into the concept of resilience, which American Psychological Association defines as “process of and outcome of successfully adapting to difficult or challenging life experiences” through psychological and behavioral “flexibility and adjustment to external and internal demands”.
Besides an individual level, the concept concerns also organizational and societal resilience. Both levels have gained attention in the past years: e.g, according to Wiig (2019) the “common use of the resilience concept relates to the ability of an entity, individuals, community, or system to return to normal condition or functioning after the occurrence of an event that disturbs its state”, or National Academy of Sciences (2012) define resilience as “the ability to prepare and plan for, absorb, recover from, or more successfully adapt to actual or potential adverse events”.
This course has a focus on all these three levels with attempt to provide the students with an understanding of the various dimensions: resilience management cycles (e.g., plan, absorb, recover, and learn/adapt), system domains (social, cognitive, information, and physical) that be applied to build resilience on a societal, organizational or even an individual level.
It also gives the students the tools to develop and apply their understanding and knowledge into practice. In other words, the course enables the students to build a resilience-based framework and deliver it in an actual work-life project.
