The Master in Social TransFormation – Politics, Philosophy & Economics is close to the pulse of our time, its challenges and the desire for a more sustainable future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Aspirations and goals | Social TransFormation – PPE<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Our current economic and socio-political landscape is characterized by increasingly complex globalization, numerous trouble spots, unethical practices in business and politics and a lack of sustainability in many areas. Democracies are being deliberately weakened, populist tendencies are growing and the call for a post-national mindset is getting louder. In order to understand and deal with this complex situation, a holistic and interdisciplinary solution perspective is required – and this is exactly what the Master in Social TransFormation – Politics, Philosophy & Economics teaches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The aim is to enable students and graduates of this degree program to take responsibility in this complex world and to train them to become critically thinking and reflective actors in current affairs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
