Goal
At the end of the course, the student should be able to:
- Define and analyse broadly the various organisational modes in the workplace, working relationships and the major issues in the workplace
- Carry out the observation, the description and a synthetic analysis of a real-life situation in the workplace (preparation for the "working class" internship at the end of the first year, for the written report and for the academic defence)
