At the University of Turku, study programmes are constantly being developed to serve the needs of future professionals. In our rapidly evolving world, delivering the best possible education sometimes requires modifying specialisation tracks, changing programme names, or even discontinuing certain programmes or tracks altogether.
TIAS organises a range of research seminars, conferences, and lectures which are generally open to everyone and of a multidisciplinary nature.
At the Faculty of Humanities, teaching and research are closely connected. A humanist education provides a wide range of skills.
The slogan of our Department ”World Beyond the Surface ” is a revealing indication of our broad field of research and the objective to understand the mechanisms behind different phenomena.
There are various multidisciplinary and international research centres operating within the Faculty of Humanities. These research centres promote high-quality research in their own fields. They also organise various seminars and conferences.
The European Remembrance Programme of the European Commission has granted funding for the interdisciplinary project “#NeverAgain: Teaching Transmission of Trauma and Remembrance through Experiential Learning”. Over the next two years, the project aims to address the concealed hatreds, prejudices and normalised oppressions that are learnt through the unhealed and transmitted traumas perpetuated in our everyday lives through seemingly harmless everyday practices.
Neutron stars are made out of cold ultra-dense matter. How this matter behaves is one of the biggest mysteries in modern nuclear physics. Researchers developed a new method for measuring the radius of neutron stars which helps them to understand what happens to the matter inside the star under extreme pressure.
The new Master’s Degree Programme provides the students with a strong basis to work as a human neuroscience expert and a wide skill set to conduct research and handle issues related to human brain and behaviour.
