These activities are held throughout the training period.
Students who have not completed postgraduate studies related to the programme and who lack sufficient training in academic subjects related to leisure must take the supplementary course C1.
This course will provide students with the foundations for conducting well-grounded research on the phenomenon of leisure, culture, or communication. It will also offer a systematic, contemporary, and interdisciplinary approach to these areas of knowledge, highlighting their significance and contribution to human development, with the conceptual principles of humanistic culture serving as the guiding principle.
The programme foresees the participation of international experts in many of its processes. The training activities are supported by the collaboration of international experts. They will therefore contribute to teaching courses, participating in monitoring committees, preparing reports prior to thesis submissions, and serving on thesis defence panels.
