[Call for applications] Circle U. Challenge Creating an Eco-responsible Hospital

After undergraduate studies in law and medicine, Viktoria Nagy majored in modern French literature and linguistics. Coming from a multilingual and multidisciplinary background, she has specialized in scientific language use, innovative, active pedagogies, and educational change-making, especially in the health education field. A tenured teacher at University Paris Cité, she has created several interdisciplinary curricula with a learning while doing, action- and case-based approach and an emphasis on critical thinking and transferable skills. Currently, she co-coordinates the implementation of a problem-based learning model with Pr. Elizabeth Macintyre at the Medical Faculty, and her research explores the (inter)cultural, systemic, cognitive (and linguistic) determinants of the feasibility of upscaled, student-led, case-based innovative pedagogies. She has been the Université Paris Cité lead in Circle U. dedicated to ‘Student-led sustainable innovation’ for a year and has put in place several programmes in that capacity.
