Departments

Department of Communication and Arts is an interdisciplinary and innovative department with academic and methodological diversity. We are established on a broad expertise in the humanities and its interdisciplinary approach, and we engage in research, education and communication in the areas of communication, journalism, performance design, history, philosophy and science studies, culture and cultural encounters, literature and language.

Department of People and Technology is involved with development of sustainable solutions. We use experimental approaches and support people’s active commitment. The Department is covering human, society, health and IT scientific fields as well as planning, intervention and design inclined fields.

We teach and conduct research in an innovative and application-oriented manner in real-world science and the environment. We work with basic science, explaining and developing the theories on which science is based. Basic and applied research go hand in hand here, and our research generates new knowledge and useful innovation.

The research at Department of Social Sciences and Business focuses on societal changes, business economics and the impact of such developments on different societies around the world. We aim at generating novel scientific insights into the on-going societal changes, confrontations and conflicts. As our teaching is closely related to our research activities it attaches high importance to methodological skills and is characterised by its multidisciplinary nature.
