The aim of the course is to examine environmental change as a problem of governance. We scrutinize major governance dimensions - such as actors, institutions and problem structures - at multiple levels and across domains. This…

The course is only offered as a single subject course for incoming exchange students. International Relations Theory is a time-honoured approach to the social world. Texts that are clearly recognisable as dealing with international…

The aim of the course is to give advanced knowledge of comparative policy, particularly concerning the output side of the political system. This includes relationships between political institutions, political decision-making and public…

Our societies and lives are to an increasing extent datafied, and shaped by means of collecting, analysing and utilising digital data. As this transforming data landscape offers new opportunities for knowledge and action, it also involves…

Every year, 7 million people die due to exposure to air pollution. Air pollution both heats and cools global temperatures, hence it is one of the major reasons for uncertainties in climate models. The green transition and our aim for a…

The course consists of supervised study and group discussion of selected texts, independent study and oral presentation of selected primary texts and a detailed outline of the projected master’s thesis.

Special attention is paid to institutions and spaces where religious identities were shaped, and in addition to written sources, the course focuses in particular on archaeological remains, art, inscriptions, and papyri. These studies will…

The course offers an opportunity to understand the complex functions of the brain and how it underlies cognitive processes. By combining theory and practical applications, you will gain insights into how the brain processes information,…

In Fundamental Cognitive Neuroscience, you will learn about these processes as well as other complex phenomena such as consciousness, brain structure and how we change as we age. The course provides a comprehensive introduction to the…

The course will discuss the emergence, development and contemporary legacy of nationalism and communism as the two major political ideologies in the twentieth century Central Europe. A particular focus will be directed towards Poland,…
