Doctoral Programme

The postgraduate education at School of Education and Communication started in 2002 and currently involves about 35 research students. The Doctoral programme focuses on Educational theory and practice, Media and Communication studies and Disability studies.

The Doctoral programme at the School of Education and Communication is a multidisciplinary centre with the aim to give doctoral students a diverse view on the concepts of Education and Communication. At the same time, the programme aims to give research students a possibility to generate in-depth knowledge in the specific subject of study.

An ambition of the programme is to ensure that doctoral students generate a network of associates with common interests, nationally as well as internationally. Another goal is to bridge the gap between practice and research in the different subjects. The programme is greatly in favour of collaboration with other institutes of higher education.

Fields of research
