INTERNATIONAL SCHOOL OF SOCIAL SCIENCE
The fundamental questions of our time are social. Environmental
problems, armed conflicts, financial crises,
social injustices and poverty all have their roots in social
and political problems that have to be solved.
The Master’s programmes at the International School
of Social Science (ISSS) are taught by engaged teachers
who conduct research in these and other areas.
Research and education at ISSS are characterised by
the seeking of knowledge and a critical analytical attitude
towards societal phenomena. Studying for a Master’s degree
at ISSS will give you insights that uncover the perceptions
and assumptions that govern our thinking and the
development of society. You will gain methods and tools
that make implementation and change possible.
The International School of Social Science offers a
wide variety of Master’s programmes that are either interdisciplinary,
thematic programmes or programmes in
certain disciplines. The variety of programmes and courses
makes it possible for most students to find something to
suit their interests. You can obtain a Master’s degree in a
traditional discipline such as Political Science or Sociology,
or in a thematic field such as Development Studies
or Global Studies. The degree you are awarded depends
on the courses you take and within which discipline you
write your Master’s thesis. All Master’s programmes at
ISSS give you eligibility for PhD studies.
You will have the opportunity to study part of your
programme at one of Lund’s partner universities around
the world, within a student exchange programme. Some
programmes also give the possibility to enrol in joint
programmes with international partner universities and
acquire a joint degree.
