About the Faculty

An emphasis on mankind

You can study more than twenty different languages in
the Faculty of Arts: from Swedish and English to Japanese
and Chinese. Other subjects include History, Archaeology,
Religious Studies and Theology, Philosophy, and Theory of
Science and Research. There are interdisciplinary courses
in Computational Linguistics, in which language studies
and technology are combined. The faculty also plays host
to a national Graduate School in Language Technology.
Students can also train to become a translator of English,
German, French, Spanish, Italian and Russian. There is a
special Medieval Committee in the faculty which carries
out research and organises conferences and seminars about
all things medieval. Research is also conducted into many
other fields, for instance Computational Linguistics and
Contemporary Culture.
