Five research lines, five themes

The research activities of our department are concentrated five research lines, each of which focuses on a specific theme. To find out more about these research lines and their themes follow the links to the left. A research line comprises a number of related projects in which experts in the corresponding fields collaborate and meet regularly. In these lab meetings, research staff, postdocs, PhD students, or research master students discuss ongoing work, papers or research proposals in progress, but also literature of common interest. Also a part of the PhD supervision is embedded in the meetings of the research lines. Many of the research themes link to topics of high societal interest and much of the research conducted in the research lines applies sociological knowledge to societal problems.
