Broaden Your Frame

The Broaden Your Frame Seminar Series aims to provide a platform for discussion with people from different sectors, often deliberately unrelated to the economic, managerial, legal, and financial worlds discussed in the classroom every day.

Students will have the opportunity to meet philosophers, writers, scientists, researchers, artists, historians, architects, and designers and challenge themselves with experiences and perspectives that will help them appreciate the world in its complexity. This approach encourages critical thinking, an aptitude to think 'outside the box', and emotional intelligence. All important aspects for the development of responsible leadership.

The Broaden Your Frame offer includes different Seminar Series throughout the year on several topics, for example, Arts and Culture, Diversity and Inclusion, Ethics and Moral Philosophy. 

The information on each seminar series (calendar, speakers, etc.) will be announced on this website page as soon as available.
