Research at the Faculty of Social Sciences
The social sciences in Duisburg are among the leading social science institutes in Germany in both basic and applied research. This is reflected, among other things, in large-scale research projects supported by third-party funding, in the promotion of young researchers (e.g., DFG Research Training Group Risk and East Asia, NRW School of Governance), and in a high degree of international networking.
Within the UDE's profile focus on “Change in Contemporary Societies,” research activities are thematically bundled and intensified. This explicitly includes interdisciplinary collaboration in research in the fields of social sciences, educational sciences, and economics, as well as research collaborations with external partners.
A wide range of social science research topics are carried out by the teams and working groups of the chairs and professorships at the Institute of Sociology and the Institute of Political Science. Detailed information can be found on the homepages of the individual researchers.
With the Institute for Development and Peace (INEF) and the Institute for Work and Qualification (IAQ), the faculty has two pure research institutes that contribute significantly to the research profile of the faculty and the UDE. In addition to the nationally and internationally renowned research activities of the individual chairs, the INEF, the IAQ, and the NRW School of Governance are nationally recognized research units.
At the same time, there is close cooperation with the Rhein-Ruhr Institute for Social Research and Policy Consulting (RISP; affiliated institute of the UDE) and the Economic and Social Science Institute of the Hans Böckler Foundation (WSI).
Furthermore, the Centre for Global Cooperation Research (CGCR) (since 2012) is a nationally and internationally visible research unit established at the faculty.
The individual research activities are published in a research report that appears every two years.
In the area of promoting young talent, the faculty currently has three junior professorships and is strongly committed to establishing and developing structured doctoral programs. As part of the DokNet doctoral network, the faculty pursues a variety of approaches to increase the number of doctoral students and, above all, to structurally improve the doctoral phase. DoKNet coordinates and bundles the diverse approaches at the faculty and brings them together under a common organizational umbrella.
