Department of Education / Kasvatustieteiden laitos - Åbo Akademi University - english information
Finland
The department focuses on the following educational areas: Adult Education; Education, Preschool teacher; Education, Teacher training; General Pedagogy; Home Economics; Sloyd (crafts/Scandinavian woodcarving tradition); Special Education. The links to research projects and publications are not yet functional, as they refer to the faculty's former name and structure (formerly the Faculty for Education and Welfare Studies). You can find the correct link to the new department's research here. In addition, the department operates the "Child and Youth Studies Research Environment (BUV)," which describes itself as "the largest child and youth studies research environment in Swedish-speaking Finland."
