General:
Introduction to INDOSOW programme
INDOSOW - International Doctoral Studies in Social Work is the first joint European doctoral study programme which offers postgraduate students the opportunity to take part in an international interdisciplinary study of social work, welfare systems and social policies. The programme provides in addition to the ordinary Ph.D. studies three core modules on comparative methodology, theories and models of social work and social policy, and diversity studies, as well as a free range of elective modules at the partner universities. Each year a summer university of two weeks is being organised by the consortium in order to teach the core modules through intensive courses. The basic principles behind the programme are the principles of social justice, inclusion, anti-discriminatory action, the right of self-determination and agency.
Each student will have also a supervisor from one of the partner universities where they will also be for one semester (the cost of stay abroad can be funded through Erasmus students exchange agreements which we have with each of the partners). Each student will be required to develop a comparative research interest, which may result in an empirical study, or in including relevant literature from the host country.
INDOSOW is based on a partnership between four European schools of social work
