Transformation of Teaching in Economic Sciences – Skills Development for Future Change Leaders in Academia and Business
Where do the economic sciences degree programs in Switzerland stand? What can we learn from recent developments in the teaching of economic sciences?
During this conference, we want to discuss the evolving trends of economic science teachings and broaden the set of teaching strategies to fit the needs of tomorrow. The conference invites to discuss the integration of new approaches such as ESG, digitalization, and sufficiency into economic teachings, as well as exchange ideas and network. We welcome lecturers, program directors, and deans in economic sciences departments as well as participants with an interest in sustainable development and teaching.

- Publication of study on economic sciences in Switzerland (WWF Switzerland & econcept, 2024).

- Interactive workshop sessions discussing teaching methods and topics such as ESG, digitalization, and sufficiency.
