Teaching Methodologies and Assessment Criteria |
The module is organised on lectures and discussion-based sessions.. The lectures combine a structured transmission of knowledge and analytical IPE perspectives with empirical evidence, practical questions and case studies. The discussion-based classes aim to stimulate students’ capacity to problematise and produce well-informed arguments grounded on lecture contents, article journals, reports, video-conferences and data gathered from international organisations, experts’ writings in newspapers and think-tank perspectives.
