Guest Lecture: Improving Employability for Students through Co-Creation and external Collaboration

This talk will reflect experiences and discussions after having been working with students and external partners through a semester. During this semester, students collaborated with a company or an organization to solve a task set by the company. The students had to use their academic and analytical skills and competences as a part of working with the ‘product’ (pitch and report), which they had to deliver to their collaboration partners. This means that the students were aware of the competences they used. The collaboration with companies and organizations formed, at the same time, part of and were integrated in the courses taught during the semester; the theories, concepts and themes, we presented in our teaching could be used by the students in their collaboration with the companies both practically and theoretically.
