Students understand that complexity gives some systems particular characteristics that make their behaviour challenging to anticipate and manage.

An overview is given of varied types of systems, from technical to sociocultural, and the different types of systems approaches most suitable for working with them. Tools for mapping and describing systems are introduced. Important aspects of complex systems, including self-organisation, emergence, anticipation, and unpredictability are considered in light of their implications for futures research.","valueEn":"The course introduces theory and methods for understanding systems as conceptual and analytical tools in Futures Studies.
