Dear Students,

We are pleased to invite you to the Summer School:

Global Management in Automotive Industry

8 August - 19 August 2016

ŠKODA AUTO University

Mladá Boleslav, Czech Republic

(2)

The programme combines the subjects of economics and management with technical issues, aimed at the automotive industry. The programme includes theoretical issues along with practical approaches, such as case studies and projects, plus practical skills training. As the language of communication is English, the participants need to prove strong knowledge of this language in both general and business English. While working on the common projects, the participants will also need to apply their writing skills and abilities, presentation and ITC skills.

The programme provides the participants with a great chance to learn more in the areas which differ from their home university programme. Students whose main specialization lies in economics and management will learn more about technical sciences, students whose main specialization lies in technical disciplines will benefit from management and marketing oriented subjects.

Regarding the companies, the participants will learn from guest lecturers, field trips and company visits. On top of their entrepreneurial competencies the program will contribute as they will deal with specific tasks and issues, and the practical skills training.

All the programme activities besides the informative subjects, should lead to networking and developing future international relationships.

The cooperation with automotive companies, inviting guest lecturers, field trips and company visits can help with identifying the needs in knowledge, practical skills, and experience.

The participants’ skills and knowledge will be developed mainly by

 Seminar-style courses;

 Project work;

 Task-based learning;

 Discussions with experts as an integral part of seminars (guest speakers);

 Skills-based learning;

 Presentations;

 Company visits, excursions.

The tutorials will be based on the participants’ preparation and their close cooperation in international groups/teams. The library and study hall with internet access will be available. The learning experience will be enhanced thanks to this close interaction of the different cultural environments of the fellow students.

The programme aims at both undergraduate (bachelor) and graduate (master) degree students. The practically oriented learning and training will help them to succeed in the increasingly competitive labour market. The students receive for the successful graduation 3 ECTS.
