Università di Perugia

FISSUF, the Department of Philosophy, Social Sciences and Education of the Università degli Studi di Perugia includes a range of sectors and disciplines belonging to different cultural areas to stimulate a continuous and dialectic comparison within fields that imply the confluence of multiple specialised knowledge areas: from Philosophy to Linguistics, from Sociology to Psychology, from Pedagogy to Teaching. The department organises and encourages lifelong learning activities by promoting the implementation of ICT and innovation in education and fostering the quality of the members concerned in training and education activities. It is the only University Department managing general teacher training (from pre-primary to secondary high school) and the courses for support teachers. Its recently founded Centre for research Human Impact Research Centre (HIRC) has the role to lead, develop and promote multidisciplinary scientific research through activities and advise in several fields.
