Contents
The seminar provides content on the basics of sustainability management in research and practice. In close cooperation with our company partner Uvex, current challenges for sustainability within the company are identified and proposed solutions are developed. The first sessions serve to give an interactive introduction to the topic of sustainability and to harmonize the different levels of knowledge of students from different disciplines. Students will learn different concepts and tools of sustainability management. Thus, the seminar aims at a systematic understanding of relevant management tools and novel instruments across corporate functions to address sustainability issues. After a theoretical introduction, students will get familiar with the current sustainability issues at Uvex across the Triple Bottom Line dimensions. These projects focus on topics such as circular economy, sustainability communication or blockchain. The second part of the seminar aims at putting the theoretical knowledge into practice. To do so, students will work in project teams to find a practical solution to the sustainability issue identified at Uvex in cooperative coordination with the supervisors of the seminar. A midterm presentation gives the students the opportunity to receive feedback and iterate on their ideas. At the end of the seminar, there will be a final presentation and students prepare a documentation of their learning journey.
