This course introduces the central traditions in organization and leadership studies by covering the basic set of concepts and perspectives needed to analyze and understand organizational phenomena and make sense of challenges managers and workers might face. The following theoretical themes (among others) are included: motivation, culture, control, leadership, and organizational design. Furthermore, the course seeks to develop analytical (problem-identifying) and decision making (problem-solving) skills required to manage complex situations, as well as train students in argumentation and presentation skills. An important pedagogical idea of the course is to make sure that theories are applied to organizational practice. Case studies are the main tool to accomplish this. In order to address the complexity of organizational issues, various perspectives are adopted when organizational practice is discussed, and emphasis is put on reflective usage of theories.

The course provides a basis and preconditions to constructively and critically reflect on the interplay between global health, the Convention of the Rights of the Child, and different international and national norm-supporting structures. The course
offers basic knowledge of the contents of the Convention on the Rights of the Child and global health, and also discusses the interplay between the Convention on the Rights of the Child and global health. The course discusses the importance of the Convention for the development of children's rights and living conditions, policies, strategies, and laws.
 

Through lectures and problem solving, students learn combinatorics, generating functions, recurrence relations, difference equations, and rings and fields with application to coding theory.

The aim of the course is to give the necessary knowledge of digital image analysis for further research within the area and to be able to use digital image analysis within other research areas such as computer graphics, image coding, video coding, and industrial image processing problems. The course also prepares students for further studies in computer vision, multispectral image analysis, and statistical image analysis.

The course reviews the most important principles and technologies in cellular and molecular neurobiology with a focus on understanding the methods used to increase our knowledge and be able to relate this to current research in the subject area. The course starts with an introduction to important methods for studies on molecular and cellular neurobiology, as well as basic practical exercises. The course also includes detailed studies of the mechanisms that underlie neuronal signaling and cell function, and how these are activated during development and neuronal plasticity. A central part of the course is the application of technologies that push the research forward, including optogenetic manipulation and gene editing to manipulate neural circuits and identify neural functions.
