Studierende machen sich im letzten Studienjahr Gedanken zu ihrer persönlichen Entwicklung. Die Karriereplanung ist nur eine von vielen der anstehenden Entscheidungen in diesem Lebensabschnitt. In diesem Seminar sollen Studierende im Sinne der Persönlichkeitsentwicklung begleitet werden, um anstehende Entscheidungen der beruflichen wie privaten Sphäre in Einklang bringen zu können und die nächsten Schritte bewusst planen zu können. Der Erfahrungshorizont während des Studiums wird durch zumindest eine länger andauernde Aktivität ausserhalb der Universität ergänzt. Dies kann ein Auslandsaufenthalt im Rahmen eines Gastsemesters an einer anderen Universität, der Besuch einer Summer-School und / oder ein Praktikum bei einem Unternehmen sein. Im Rahmen dieses Seminars wird diese Erfahrung analysiert, um Aspekte der interkulturellen Kompetenz angereichert und in den Reflektionsprozess integriert.
