(fecha de viaje 21 de Junio – 11 de Julio)

PRESENTACIÓN ESCUELA DE VERANO

Sitio

La Escuela de Verano se organiza en la Corvinus University Budapest, una

de las Universidades más prestigiosas en Europa con el apoyo del

Consulado Honorario de Hungría en Bogotá.

Propósito

Discutir las últimas tendencias en regulación económica con expertos

profesores de la Corvinus University Budapest, la Universidad Extremadura

de España y la Pontificia Universidad Javeriana Bogotá para entender el

acercamiento a estos temas en la Unión Europea siempre teniendo en

cuenta una perspectiva Colombiana.

Estudiantes Interesados

Es una propuesta inter-disciplinar para estudiantes de diferentes carreras

de derecho, economía, administración de empresas, ciencias políticas y

relaciones internacionales provenientes de Universidades destacadas en

Colombia.

Número mínimo de participantes: 20

Número máximo de participantes: 40

Metodología

Las clases se desarrollan en Inglés y en Español dependiendo del módulo.

La idea es proveer la experiencia de profundización en el área de

regulación económica con la práctica del idioma Inglés.

La Escuela de Verano ofrece cinco módulos en 80 horas en Budapest

(equivalente a 5 créditos académicos en Colombia). Los participantes se

inscriben como estudiantes regulares de la Corvinus University Budapest y

reciben un Certificado de Asistencia de la misma Universidad siempre

cuando participan en un mínimo de 80% de las clases y cumplen con los

requisitos adicionales de evaluación. El Certificado de Asistencia incluye un

transcript de los módulos cursados.

Los profesores evalúan en cada módulo el desempeño académico de los

participantes en forma de notas. En los dos módulos centrales del curso -

International Economic Order y European Economic Integration – los

estudiantes desarrollan unos proyectos de investigación en grupos con

base de trabajo individual dirigido en biblioteca. Los grupos presentarán y

discutirán sus papers de 5-10 páginas en un seminario alemán. Las tres

principales áreas de investigación propuestas son a) sobre cargas

tributarias relacionadas al impacto ambiental en la Unión Europea; b) sobre

las tendencias en la política energética de la Unión Europea y c) sobre

políticas agrarias de la Unión Europea.

CORVINUS UNIVERSITY BUDAPEST

Rankings

According to the Financial Times European Masters in Management

Rankings the CEMS degree that is offered also at Corvinus is regularly the

first or second most recognised programme in this field.

Student life - international atmosphere

Every year about 1,500 international students choose to study at Corvinus

University.

Prestigious university in Hungary and the region

Excellent reputation, which has been proven in various domestic and

international rankings.

Award for the excellent education making the management

profession globally competitive.

The highest index of satisfaction among the employers concerning

the students having graduated from Corvinus University.

Academic excellence

3-cycled programmes with focus on Master's in foreign languages.

Internationally accredited programmes (in the EPAS system).

Aim: to reach international standards in education and provide

competitive degrees on the European and global market.

Unique in Hungary: degree programmes in landscape architecture,

public administration and food science.

The wide range of interesting courses at Corvinus offer a unique

experience of academic content, working with Hungarian and

international students and exposure to practical problems of

Hungarian and regional issues.

The teaching professors have a great experience in conducting

classes not only in the Hungarian environment, but several of them

are regular visitors at other European universities and Business

Schools in the United States.

A lot of emphasis is put on learning versus teaching at Corvinus.

Learning also means exploration, often putting the emphasis rather

on questions than answers, dilemmas instead of clear-cut solutions.

Nevertheless, Corvinus is solid on academic theory and making

students work hard. After all, rest feels good when serious

accomplishments are achieved!

PROGRAMA ACADÉMICO DE LOS MÓDULOS

Course Intention

The World Economy and the Global Financial Crisis (in English)

Following a short introduction to the main theoretical

concepts and methods of modern international institutions,

the course provides an analysis of the most important

economic organisations such the United Nations (and its

specialised agencies), the International Monetary Fund

(IMF), the International Bank for Reconstruction and

Development (IBRD), the European Bank for

Reconstruction and Development (EBRD), the Organisation

for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD), and

the European Central Bank. Based on the theoretical

issues the concrete operation of these institutions in the

world economic and political environment is going to be

examined.

The major aim is, however, to place these economic

organisations into real-world context and to test their

relevance, efficiency and power.

The global financial crisis offers a great opportunity o

investigate the effectiveness of the main international

economic organisations; i.e., whether they have been able

to provide remedies to the most recent problems.

Course Objectives

By applying an interdisciplinary approach, at the end of the

course students should be able to:

have a clear understanding of the structural issues of

international institutions following the second world war;

be informed about the forms, spheres and manifestations

of interdependencies in the world economy, and their

reflections in international institutions;

be familiar with the main theoretical concepts relating to

economic institutions and financial crisis.

Course Intention

International economic order (in English)

The class examines the relationship between economic and

political power and wealth in the development and

functioning of the modern world economy. We focus on the

ways in which economic, political and social forces affect

the policy choices of states, firms and atomized individuals

in international trade, investment, and monetary affairs.

However, following the tradition of international political

economy, we will also explore how international economic

forces influence national policy-decisions, how the

globalised world economy may alter the national

competitiveness of individual states.

The main premise of this module is that neither international

politics nor international economics can be understood in

isolation from one another. It is essential that we see how

power, money and markets are intertwined. To this end,

students must possess at least a rudimentary

understanding of economics. This serves as a basis for

learning how to think about the world economy, in

particular understanding the many ways interdependence

operates.

Course topics and subtopics:

1. The global economic order

2. Political Economy theories, Economic growth

Gilpin, R. Global Political Economy 2003.

Course Intention

European Economic Integration (in English)

The economic and financial crisis of 2007/2009 has posed

unexpected challenges on both the global level (i.e. the

reform of the international financial architecture) and the

regional level. Besides the US, the EU has been the most

severely hit by the current economic crisis. The financial

and banking crisis on the one hand and the sovereign debt

crisis on the other hand have clearly shown that without a

bold, constructive and systematic change of the economic

governance structure of the Union, not just the

sustainability of the monetary zone but also the viability of

the whole European integration process would be seriously

undermined.

In order to understand the current developments and

challenges in the EU, the course aims at providing a clear

understanding of the evolution of the European economic

integration process from the period following the Second

World War through the creation of the EEC, the single

market and the single currency to the global economic

crisis of today.

The ultimate goal of the module is to provide students with a

clear and solid understanding of the main concepts,

theories and approaches of economic integration of the EU.

The course provides a historical, institutional and a

thorough analytical analysis of the integration process of

the EU.

The module adopts an interdisciplinary approach, with a

particular focus on economics, public policy and

international relations. It aims to familiarise students with

the relevant international literature on European economic

integration by bringing together history, economic theory,

political economy issues, institutional analysis and socio-

economic relations.

Course

Objectives

economic integration in the EU;

recognise the relevant roles played by different EU

institutions and bodies in economic policy-making (i.e.,

ECB, Commission, Parliament, Council, national authorities,

etc.);

critically examine the current debates, challenges and

controversies on economic governance and financial crisis.

Course topics

Course topics and subtopics:

1. European integration: A historical perspective

2. Global and regional governance under Bretton Woods

3. Main bodies, institutions and the structure of and decision-
