Lisätiedot

During this course, we will be looking at future of work from several perpectives, and summarize our findings in what will be required of the physical workspaces in the future.

Our focus is on knowledge intensive organisations and knowledge work, but you can consider other types of working environments in your project work, if you so desire.

Lectures will be for your orientation and inspiration, and knowledge sharing is highly appreciated. In the project work, you can work by yourself or in teams. If work is done in team, contribution of each member must be identified for evaluation purposes.
