The 16th AAE Summer School – 18^th until 29^th of March 2025 – Chemnitz and Berlin

The topic will be “Investigating the interrelation of culture, creativity, innovation and sustainable development in the age of disruption” and will include:

• Several workshops and lectures, held by Professors and staff members of our partner universities (ICN, UKZN and others) and from Chemnitz University of Technology

• Field trips fitting into to topics of culture, art, sustainability, management, and technology around Chemnitz (Capital of Culture) and Berlin

• Attendance and active participation at the ARTEM OCC conference “Rethinking Paths on Creativity, Innovation, and Sustainability in the Age of Disruption” in Berlin

Beyond the variety of topics and the mix of interactive learning experiences, there are some other benefits:

• MOS students, participating at the AAE Summer School, can substitute one seminar of the MOS study programme, for instance, “New concepts of leadership” or “Advances in Organisation and International Management II”.
• Daily food and transportation costs will be covered by funding.
• Get a “taste for science” and the academic world by meeting international researchers and writing your first research paper for a publication.

Our partners from University of KwaZulu Natal in Durban South Africa and ICN Business School in Nancy, France are going to send students to attend the AAE Summer School. We are also trying to integrate further universities from all over the world to make the AAE Summer School in 2025 an international and intercultural experience.

Interested students from Chemnitz University of Technology can apply for the AAE Summer School by submitting a short CV and an abstract** of approximately 1,000 words until the 9th of September 2024.
