In this course we will use both literature research as well as statistical analysis in order to analyse urban projects and policies from both a financial and an urban economic perspective. Students will apply their research skills as well as train their analytical skills in assessing real-life urban projects and developments.

Analytical and quantitative competences in the field of finance and riskmanagement are trained. The seminar prepares students for the master thesis to which the topics can be (generally) extended. Literature research as well as the current state of the academic discussion in the topic’s area furthermore deepens the student’s competences in pursuing an academic training on a high level.

Academic Writing

Bachelor students also take part in the course Academic Writing (Module 11).
