Over deze cursus
Note: This course can not be combined in an individual programme with GEO-10306 Human Geography.
In this foundational course students learn to combine theoretical and conceptual thinking from human geography and related perspectives, and ways to analyse and understand the reciprocal relationships between humans and their environments, both natural and built.
The learning materials are designed to introduce students to key themes and concepts that relate to human/environment relationships seen from the perspective of human geography and related social sciences, from the complex and evolving relationship between society and nature, to the significance of urban design for human wellbeing. Students will work in small groups to further explore the weekly themes through discussion and practical exercises, which can be carried out online or in person.
