Board of studies 

 

The Education Committee (UU) shall ensure that the education at the department is in line with the nature of universities and administration and organizational science and deals with matters concerning the education's content, form and implementation.

By "uniqueness" is meant that teaching and supervision must be research-based and promote student-responsible learning. The education shall reflect the widths and characteristics of the subject and aim to practice students' academic independence, academic honesty and critical sense.

The Education Committee deals with both principled, administrative and practical issues related to the educational activities: Academic-pedagogical quality development, dissemination and profiling of the department's educational activities, as well as more technical, study administrative matters.

Both employees and students can submit cases to UU through their representatives. The chair of the committee represents the department in the Faculty of Social Sciences' Forum for Education.
