Plesso di Borgo Carissimi - Palazzina al civico 12

The Education Unit brings together scholars specializing in education, sociology, geography, and economics. Its scientific focus - across teaching, research, and third mission activities - is centered on the diverse areas of educational studies, including theory and history of education, social pedagogy, didactics, special education, and educational research. 

The contribution of experts from other social sciences fosters a dynamic and productive interdisciplinary dialogue, which is reflected in the Unit’s research initiatives and public engagement activities. In the complexity of contemporary society, the demand for highly qualified professionals in the field of education spans a wide range of professional sectors. Addressing this demand requires integrated, diversified, and cross-disciplinary expertise, which constitutes a defining strength of the Unit.
