Course content

The BLC bachelor project is the defining feature of the educational experience offered by the Business, Language and Culture (BLC) Programme. Students have an opportunity to develop and investigate a research question within the Programme’s interdisciplinary, participatory educational framework. The project group research effort is supported by an initial orientation, a series of project-focused presentations with discussion, a collaborative workshop, and then extended project specific guidance from a research supervisor the project group recruits, subject to Programme administration approval.

The BLC bachelor interdisciplinary project focus is at the company or organizational level, drawing on methods and other course content given in the Programme. The overall theme is “Organizations and sustainability in an international context.” Project groups work together to craft an original firm or organization-level research question, design and enact methods for data to resolve the questions, assess the data, and then propose conclusions to the research questions.

Students can find further information about writing a bachelor project here: my.cbs.dk => Bachelor Project.
