Scholars from the fields of economics, history, public administration, culture, law, sociology, social psychology, ethics, innovation studies, and geography join forces to find answers to the following key questions: Why do societies develop so divergently? And how do institutions contribute to the formation of open and sustainable societies?
/en/research/institutions-for-open-societies - Interdisciplinary Social Science
At the department Interdisciplinary Social Science we deal with social issues such as discrimination in the labour market, reintegration at work, growing up in multicultural neighbourhoods, developing your own identity, risk behaviour among young people, growing inequality and accessibility of healthcare.

- Quaternary climate and landscape
Our research covers the last hundred thousands of years when rapid climate change and sea level rise took place under mostly natural conditions. By studying this particular time-period, we gain a better understanding of the relative contribution and functioning of natural processes on climate and landscape changes.
/en/research/department-of-physical-geography/research/quaternary-climate-and-landscape We extract information from earthquakes recorded at global and regional seismic networks to produce three-dimensional models of the Earth'sinterior, mostly using supercomputing.
