Description

By exploring similarities and differences in contemporary challenges to the welfare of citizens in China and Europe, you will learn to manage and participate in social innovation at the interface between the public and private sectors in China as well as Europe. The programme is carried out at Sino-Danish Center for Education and Research (SDC), at the Yanqihu campus north of Beijing.

The programme is taught in China with both Chinese and European students and teachers. This means that you will be learning both inside and outside the classroom, and the line between study and leisure time is blurred. The experience builds competencies that you could never get from reading a book.

The programme is broad, but leaves room for specialisation within different sectors, public or private. The internship will be a good chance to pursue personal interests.

Career Opportunities

The programme will give you a sound understanding of how welfare models of China and Europe have been constructed in the past, and how innovation can help develop new models to face the new societal challenges. Aside from this more technical and political insight, you will also gain an understanding of Chinese culture and society that goes very deep. This unique combination of skill and insight will be your key selling point when approaching future public or private employers who are interested in doing business in or with China.
