An ever-changing world requires people that help us to understand these developments by putting them into an societal and historical context. At the Faculty of Social Sciences, we engage in research seeking to explain the very roots of society, as well as the challenges it currently faces. The study-programs offered by our six disciplines address these questions from a variety of perspectives, but all pursue a common goal: to provide students with high-level and research-based education that prepares them for future challenges by broadening their perspectives and increasing their analytical skills.
