STUDY PROGRAMME CURRICULUM HUMANITIES AND SOCIAL SCIENCES

Scientific title (in original and English language): doktor/doktorica znanosti (dr.) / Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) 

Humanities and social sciences together represent a very broad scientific area that is important for human life and the preservation and progress of society and culture. Scientific work in this extremely broad area is fostered in many different faculties of the University of Ljubljana. Research in particular faculties is usually more specific and is consistent with the faculty orientations, although many activities in different faculties are spliced. During the renovation of doctoral education at the University of Ljubljana, the experts in humanities and social sciences combined their efforts in preparing an interdisciplinary programme that on the one hand allows some traditional field specificities to be respected and, on the other, introduces a unified scheme to doctoral education in this large area. The programme links all scientists at the University of Ljubljana engaged in research in the area of humanities and social sciences.

The main purpose of the interdisciplinary doctoral programme in Humanities and Social Sciences is to assure doctoral candidates possess the fundamental knowledge necessary for their future scientific work in the area. The programme emphasises the connection between study and research, the cooperation between different institutions and the development of an interdisciplinary and innovative approach to study and research. The goal is to obtain well-versed doctoral candidates who are capable of developing all the necessary competences required for interdisciplinary research. The application of their knowledge at an internationally comparable level is expected.

The interdisciplinary doctoral programme in Humanities and social sciences combines all the fields in this area, fostered by the following faculties: the Faculty of Arts, the Faculty of Social Sciences, the Academy of Music, the Academy of Theatre, Film, Radio and Television, the Academy of Fine Arts and Design, the Faculty of Theology, the Faculty of Social Work. The doctoral programme allows the candidates to obtain the title Doctor of Science in 62 different scientific fields. The programme is comprehensive and very complex. The programme is coordinated by the Programme Council. In addition to the above faculties and academies, individual experts from research institutes were also invited to contribute their pedagogical expertise and research infrastructure.
