In a second part, a scientific conference will be simulated in which the participating students will act as conference organizers, session conveners, and presenters of their scientific work in an “interdisciplinary language”.

 

The contents of the course will be defined by the students’ master topics, the overall umbrella being mountain tourism from various viewpoints, ranging from social, economic, strategic, historic, environmental aspects, sustainable concepts to sport‑health aspects and politics. The course will also facilitate first steps into the real scientific world (abstracts, presentations, conferences).
