learning outcomes |
---|
Student knows a wide range of methods applied in regional analysis and can apply them in solving model situations. In model situations, student is able to choose relevant data, to process data using suitable quantitative or qualitative methods and to interpret the outcomes including linkages between variables and other associations. Student is able to elaborate complex analysis of a spatial problem using a wide range of methods. Student is able to elaborate spatial projections of further changes on the basis of relevant data. Student is able to elaborate analytical background, including data and visualisation outputs, as a basis for further argumentation in the decision-making process. Student is able to solve regional tasks in team. |
