Research
The Department of Education views education as a historically evolved, complex field of institutions, organizations, practices, and actors concerned with teaching, learning, and growing up.
As such, education is also the result of the interplay of (sometimes competing) ethical, social, cultural, religious, political, and economic interests, preferences, and expectations that arise and interact at the local, national, and global levels.
The goal of our research in education—which is grounded in internationally relevant principles and encompasses both theoretically oriented research and a wide range of concrete local and cross-regional case studies—is to contribute to the international scholarly discourse.
