About the course
The course offers an institutional perspective on how organisations are influenced by and manage their complex environment. Organisations are institutionally embedded, they have to relate to a variety of norms, rules and ideas that both enable and limit their activities. They need to deal both with legitimacy and efficiency demands. The course aims to train you to analyse and critically reflect on the demands and trends that organisations face in their environment.
For exchange students: As this course is part of a Master's track, it cannot be taken on its own but must be taken with other course/s in the same track during the same semester.
