Welcome to School of Global Studies!
The pace and extent at which the arena for human action is becoming global is increasing as more and more social actors and locations become linked together in the ''globalised space'' in ways that are becoming increasingly complex and diverse. The School of Global Studies represents a unique environment for research and education in the field of globalisation and global issues.
The School of Global Studies is a multi-disciplinary department that offers education at undergraduate and graduate level in the form of programmes and freestanding courses, as well as research-based programmes.
Research and education is carried out within: Human Ecology, Human Rights, Regional Studies (African Studies, Asian Studies, Latin American Studies, Middle East Studies), Peace and Development Research and Social Anthropology.
The department also holds the activities of Global Gender Studies, which coordinates the research network GADNET and the Sida Gender Helpdesk.
From 1 January Museion is part of the School of Global Studies.
