Course description
Transition Management tackles the significant economic and political shifts happening in many transition and emerging economies around the globe. These societies are rapidly moving from state-controlled systems to market economies, and from autocratic regimes to democratic governance. This transformation often occurs at higher income and technology levels than those seen in typical developing countries. The group of transition countries includes the successor states of the former Soviet Union, Eastern and South Eastern Europe, and transition economies in Asia like China and Vietnam. The program also offers valuable insights into emerging economies in Latin America and Africa. The English-language Master’s Programme "Transition Management" is an interdisciplinary study program at Justus Liebig University Giessen. It is spearheaded by the Faculty of Agricultural Sciences, Nutritional Sciences, and Environmental Management (Faculty 09). The Center for International Development and Environmental Research (ZEU) at the University of Giessen provides specialized input and teaching modules tailored to the program's needs. This program equips students with the knowledge and skills to understand and manage the complexities of these transitions. It fosters an environment of trust, understanding, and inclusivity, ensuring that students are well-prepared to contribute to the evolving global landscape.
