Intensive Course of Circular Economy

Funding

In a development project co-ordinated by Metropolia, we built an intensive course of circular economy with our international academic partners.

Learning outcomes from the intensive course weeks in Tallinn, Kaunas and Liepaja included the students to

  • creatively approach specific information for solving interdisciplinary problems
  • know what life-cycle thinking is in solving problems
  • know what Green-washing and sustainability is
  • understand the basics of Circular Economy
  • be able to compare several development alternatives of circular economy cases.

CIRECO is a NORD+ funded network of universities aiming to deliver a real-life related intensive course to lead us to circular economy. The network includes universities from Estonia, Finland, Iceland, Latvia and Lithuania.
