SIS: A multidisciplinary Center that investigates the challenges associated with the processes of globalization and European integration
The School of International Studies organizes and supports many research activities in the field of European and international studies. These activities are predominantly characterized by a multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary approach.
The School of International Studies develops multidisciplinary research activities addressing the challenges associated with the processes of globalization and European integration. The complexity of modern societies implies that no single disciplinary approach is sufficient to understand the rapid social, political, economic and institutional changes currently occurring both in Europe and worldwide, therefore the activities feature predominantly a multidisciplinary approach.
Funded Research projects
The School benefits from a culture of high-quality research which belongs to the whole faculty, from dynamic young researchers to the most experienced scholars. The School is constantly involved in a series of research projects, funded both internally and externally. Many of these projects pertain to the four Research Clusters that are present in the School, and are often conducted by multi-disciplinary teams of researchers. Faculty members normally collaborate with colleagues from other Departments of the University of Trento and/or with scholars from other national and international institutions. The list of completed research projects is available here, while the list of ongoing research projects is available here.
