MABIOD5100 Bakteriologi og antimikrobiell resistens Emneplan

On this course, you will be challenged to take a role as a practice oriented systemic designer - facilitating, managing, and designing systems, service and product solutions, and strategies for implementation. You will combine methods from both design and game dynamics in order to engage users and consumers towards behavioural and systemic change.

The skills, knowledge and insights you will attain during this course are highly sought after in both the private and public sectors, especially within the rapidly growing service and systems design field, systemic product design, and academic design research.

The course is a collaboration between Oslo Metropolitan University, Norway and L’École de design Nantes Atlantique, France.

To apply for this course you need:

• A bachelor’s degree, or an equivalent degree
• CV
• A letter that outlines your motivation for applying for the course, and how you think this might benefit your professional practice.

None, other then the admission requirements.

After completing the course, the student is expected to have achieved advanced level in the following learning outcomes defined in terms of knowledge, skills and general competence:

Knowledge

The student will attain knowledge within:

• general systems theory
• cybernetic and communication theory
• system dynamics and analysis
• game dynamics in systems
• methods for data gathering in complex settings (visual interviewing, design probes and play probes, co-design, among others)
• experimentation in systems

Skills

The student is capable of:

• describing and identifying exceedingly complex contexts
• creating systems-maps
• performing system analyses
• utilizing methods for data gathering, sharing, cooperation, analysis, and documentation: visual interviewing, design probing, play probing, co-design, feministic design, auto-ethnographical research, mapping workshops, and analysis of relations, patterns, causality, stakeholders, systems dynamics.
• documenting findings in co-created visualizations.
• creating strategies and interventions for change in private and public sector.

General competence

The student attains advanced competence in systemic design by:

• developing the ability to understand and handle complexity and systems thinking in design processes.
• holistic thinking and understanding of design projects in relation to sustainability and global megatrends.
• communication and cooperation by visualization

The course consists of four weeks with workshops, both with physical and digital attendance. You will be invited to participate one week at OsloMet and one week in Nantes, France. The two other workshops will on digital platforms. You will also be offered weekly tutoring sessions.
