Experts in Teams (EiT)
Experts in Teams is an inter-disciplinary course which is compulsory for all NTNU Master’s students. The teams are called “villages”. The course focuses on problem-based learning and multidisciplinary cooperation in problem-solving within “real” industrial, commercial or social contexts. MSc in Globalization students will take part in the “Global Village” team, which aims at developing excellent “team players” within a cross-cultural environment. The “Global Village” will create relevant knowledge on the functioning of international institutions within an increasingly globalized world. Students will study the globalized production system, using the case of a single transnational company. In addition, they will study the international humanitarian regime, focusing on the case of the International Red Cross.
