Workshop
On-campus seminar
In this seminar, we will focus on identifying aspects around your “purpose” and values. We will explore what you find important in life and why. We will focus on topics related to questions such as:
“How can I act upon what I find important?”
“What do I want to bring others?”
“How does my study relate to me and my values?”
“What ideas do I have that I would like to bring into practice?”
"Should I keep doing something I am good at, but don’t like doing?”
We work with tools that help you find and anchor direction in your own life, study path, ambitions and other activities.
