Welcome to the Swedish national Graduate school in Education and Sustainable Development
Print out a sheet with information about GRESD
In early May, 2009 the Graduate school in Education and Sustainable Development (GRESD) started its research activities. Here are more than 15 PhD students from different disciplines given the opportunity to create multidisciplinary research concerning issues relating to education and sustainable development.
This is a new and unique form of research school that has been developed in close coordination and collaboration with eight universities in the research area of education and sustainable development, (ESD). Thank to this, GRESD will in the near future be one of the largest ESD research environments in the world.
The research school organizes cross-disciplinary courses dealing with these factors and the courses are organized by professors with different institutional affiliations. The first compulsory course started in May 2009 and it is offered to all interested doctoral students and master students.
The research school aims at, in consert with the PhD students, creating a creative environment for research, which future multidisciplinary research projects could be develop through co-operation with international universities. International guest professors are also linked to the research school through an international committee.
If you are interested in education and sustainable development, do not hesitate to contact us for further information and cooperation!
