Unicorsa: a single and Multidisciplinary case-study Method for ten subjects in the field Of social and legal sciences

Abstract

The teaching innovation project “UNICORSA: a single and
multidisciplinary case-study method for ten subjects in the field of social and legal
sciences”, was a joint initiative of four departments and six areas in the field of
social and legal sciences of the University of Córdoba aiming to implement the
technical knowledge transmitted by each of these areas. To this end, UNICORSA,
a fictitious company, was created in order to play the main role of all the practical
activities proposed by the participating teachers in their respective courses. This led
to a multidisciplinary study of the various events that UNICORSA had to go
through in its economic, legal and social life.
At the end of the term, a seminar entitled “Board of directors of the
UNICORSA company” was held and the students involved in the project
participated by presenting the solutions (reports) to the cases raised by the teachers
in the different subjects. As in any shareholders' meeting, the approval of each of
the reports was put to a vote. Among the main results achieved, it is worth
highlighting the visibility of the practical application of the theoretical skills and
knowledge acquired by the participants, the integration of multidisciplinary
knowledge and the improvement of skills when interacting with other people from
different training disciplines to achieve a common goal.
