During the study unit, students will work in teams with a client to develop services.
The implementation of the study unit is intensive, meaning that one week is carried out with international partners abroad, and the rest of the study unit is a pre-and post assignment to acquire the remaining section of knowledge belonging to the study unit. Students need to be prepared to work efficiently and actively during the studies.
The studies include English studies that are integrated into the study unit, following Laurea's learning approach Learning by Developing. In addition to working in English, the study unit focuses on intercultural theories and Design Thinking.
**This study unit is a finalist in the 2019 Quality Innovation Award in Higher Education in Finland**
