- Turku School of Economics, University of Turku: Master of Science in Economics and Business Administration
The three universities offers following modules:
- Management and multicultural environment module 30 ECTS, IAE University of Marseille
- IT management and research skills module 30 ECTS, TSE, University of Turku
- Integration and career module 30 ECTS, Tilburg University
- Thesis 30 ECTS, IAE, TSE and Tilburg
IMMIT offers:
- A highly innovative program for top students.
- The possibility to earn 3 Master's degrees from highly reputed European universities in 2 years.
- A unique experience in an international classroom that will broaden your views on Business and IT.
- Small sized classes.
- A strong international orientation.
- Internships, which means fast track career opportunities.
The IMMIT programme degree totals 120 ECTS credits, to be completed in 2 years of full-time studies. The language of instruction is English. The first semester will start in August at IAE Aix-en-Provence. The emphasis will be on the foundations of international business. The semester will finish in December and in January the students will move to the University of Turku in Finland to start the second semester. The main focus of the second semester will be on skills in IT management. The second semester will finish in May. The third semester will start at Tilburg University in September and the emphasis shifts towards integration issues such as the role of IT in business transformation, management of IT-based innovation and more specialised topics in international IT management. The fourth semester starts in January/February and is devoted to thesis work, which includes an internship in an international operating company. This internship could take place anywhere in the world, although most IMMIT students find an internship position in Europe.

Kurssin tavoitteena on, että opiskelija kasvattaa tietopohjaa psykologisten interventioiden ja psykoterapian toteuttamisesta sekä oppii näissä tarvittavia taitoja. Oppiminen tapahtuu kliinisen asiakastyön sekä teoreettisen opiskelun avulla. Kurssin jälkeen opiskelija tietää miten psykologinen tai lyhytpsykoterapeuttinen interventio rakentuu ja hänellä on valmiudet toteuttaa hoidollisia interventioita.
Keskeisimpiä kurssilla harjoiteltavia asioita ovat vuorovaikutustaidot, tapausjäsennyksen laatiminen, hoitomuodon soveltuvuuden ja riskien arviointi, allianssin luominen ja ylläpito, kyky käsitellä tapaamisten tunnesisältöä, lopetusvaiheen työskentely, kyky hyödyntää työnohjausta, vaikuttavien mekanismien tunteminen, käyntikirjausten laatiminen, vaikuttavuuden seuranta ja palautetietoinen hoito.
Lisäksi opiskelija tuntee psykologin työn ammatilliset ja eettiset ohjeet ja lainsäädännön sekä osaa soveltaa psykologista tutkittua ja teoreettista tietoa käytännön asiakastyössä. Opiskelija kykenee myös huomioimaan asiakkaiden osallistumismahdollisuuksia (esteettömyys) ja itsenäistä selviytymistä edistäviä tekijöitä työskentelyssään.
Kurssin osaamistavoitteet liittyvät mm. seuraaviin valmistuvan psykologin kliinisiin osaamisalueisiin:
Interventiotaidot
Moninaisuuden ymmärtäminen
Ammatillinen itsereflektio, oman toiminnan arviointi ja itsestä huolehtimisen taito

In this course, we will explore the ways in which a series of ideas and myths about “America” developed into a field of study, first in the United States and later on globally. By discussing such themes as “Americanness,” “freedom,” “exceptionalism,” “community,” and “transnationalism,” we will contemplate the many beliefs and contradictions embedded in U.S. nationhood and North American nations, as understood in various contexts and by different people. From a nation-based approach to multiple phenomenon-based and transnational approaches, we will also consider various watershed moments that have marked the academic study of the United States and North America. Throughout the course, we will pay close attention to the everyday usage of language and terminology related to the United States and the Americas. The course is a combination of lectures, readings/other materials, and student debates. The final evaluation is based on a portfolio of reflection papers based on the main theme of each week.

Course description:
This course will focus on one of the top 5 conservation concerns worldwide – the spread, establishment, and impact of invasive species in new locations. Students in the course will become familiar with ecological and evolutionary theories pertaining to species invasions, and with methods for assessing the spread and impacts of invasive species at local and global scales. The course will examine biological invasions at multiple levels, including: (1) ecological impacts and predictors of invasive species establishment and spread (e.g., competition, predation, symbiotic relationships); (2) evolutionary insights of invasions and recipient communities (e.g., founder effects, hybridization, spatial sorting, coevolutionary history; (3) management implications of invasive species establishment and spread (e.g., prevention, mitigation, eradication); and (4) the effects of human-induced global change (e.g., climate change) on the spread of non-native species.

Most studies in the social sciences are motivated by questions that are causal in nature. However, in these areas experiments are not always possible because of ethical or practical reasons and the estimation of causal effects has often to rely on observational studies. The validity of inference will then strictly depend on the plausibility of the assumptions underlying the employed statistical techniques. Students will learn some of the most popular techniques for estimating causal effects with observational data.
