    Block 2: Management game 1: reorganise a curriculum Different stakeholders have to agree on the reorganization of the curricula of university programmes. Issues to decide on include the speed of the reforms, the rewards for faculty, approval procedures and the way of process monitoring.

    Block 3: Management game 2: decline in student numbers Participants are assigned to roles and university functions and have to respond to a decline in student numbers while preserving a long term financial viable situation for a university. How do various stakeholders match the individual (unit) interest with the collective university interest? How do we bargain, lobby and calculate for the best results? How do the participants evaluate their own behaviour? What leadership styles are used? And do we reach an overall viable university strategy?

    Block 4: Presentations of individual students Participants present on their real life experiences with managerial roles, styles and strategic behaviour of themselves or others in their current or previous jobs and how they deal with tension, conflicts of interest and responsibilities.
