Together with the Institute of Research into School Education and the Department of Social Pedagogy the Department of Pedagogy provides a doctoral programme of study in the field of Pedagogy.

The study of key pedagogical disciplines forms the basis of the so-called common core of teacher training, which is one of the prerequisites for successful teaching. Through ongoing updates of pedagogical theory and by reflecting on the issues in schools these days, the department´s staff strive to improve the quality of future teachers´ training.
