The Doctoral School of Education offers students a broadly conceived, interdisciplinary, theoretically based educational science programme, with the aim of preparing them for work in higher education and scientific research, as well as other jobs in the education sector requiring high research competencies. The direct aim of the training is to develop the high-level skills needed to carry out independent research and development activities, individually or in research teams, and to share and apply the research results.
Our programme comprises of both course-based and research-based elements.
