The Department of Education Sciences

The Department of Education Sciences at the University of Genoa is a multidisciplinary and dynamic center that integrates research, teaching, and third mission activities across the fields of the humanities and social sciences. Its scientific identity is grounded in an educational, formative, and cultural approach to the human being, considered in the complexity of individual, social, biological, anthropological, linguistic, historical, and geographical dimensions.

Vision

The Department of Education Sciences (DiSFor) adopts a medium- to long-term vision that integrates the quality of teaching, research, and third mission activities. This vision aligns with the University’s strategic plan and available resources, and promotes the development of interdisciplinary skills across pedagogical, psychological, sociological, anthropological, linguistic, philosophical, historical, and geographical fields, in keeping with the Department's inherently multidisciplinary nature.
Innovative teaching, research support, and social impact are the core pillars of DiSFor’s mission for the 2025–2027 period.
