After successful completion, students have in-depth knowledge of various transformation dynamics and forms. They are experienced in discussing and reflecting on various analytical and evaluation concepts of transformation dynamics. They can classify various theoretical and methodological approaches in the present day and discuss them in light of relevant evaluation criteria that apply to transformations in the face of pressing crises such as climate catastrophe, biodiversity loss or land overuse. They are also able to understand the complexity of the design challenges of a transformation on a global scale and to analyze the various roles, e.g. of the state or niche actors. They can apply conceptual perspectives such as the multi-level perspective, the ecosystem approach or evolutionary innovation theory.
