Target group
This is a two week summer school. It is open especially for undergraduate and postgraduate students of economics and business, ecology, environmental sciences and environmental protection, as well as European studies and public sector economics. Students from other fields are also welcomed.
Course aim
Students get an important opportunity to learn about new public sector management trends, that include the idea of integrating managerial approaches to the public sector activities within important part of this trend being public-private partnerships (PPP). The main objective of this intensive programme is to spread the awareness of modern possibilities in infrastructure delivery among the students, who are potential actors in future PPP in EU.
They might become national public servants, managing such projects from the point of view of public sector interests, or private managers, who will cooperate in such complex projects, representing private interests. Both parties need to be aware of positive and negative effects of such partnerships: risk sharing, managing and financing complex projects. Such experts have to be able to recognize interdisciplinary approach in PPP, which is a revolutionary way of infrastructure provision. Such knowledge obtained by the students will undoubtedly contribute to larger amount of PPP projects in the whole EU in the future.
