Collaboration at Department of Social Work

The department of social work strives for collaboration with various actors in many ways. It may refer to cooperation regarding education, research or other areas. An important area is of course the students' work-based education, where the department depends on good cooperation. We also have regular collaboration meeting with certain actors.

Several of our ongoing research projects take place in collaboration with organisations or municipalities and there certainly new ways of collaboration in regards to research.

Perhaps you have a proposal where your business and the Department of Social Work may benefit each other? Would you like to collaborate with the Department of Social Work and our researchers on research, education or just probe the terrain?

About collaboration theses

All students at the sociology program write theses and some like to write in collaboration with the social field. Here is more information about the prerequisites for collaborative theses.
