The “Riccardo Massa” Department of Human Sciences for Education commenced functioning in January 1999 as the Department of Educational Epistemology and Hermeneutics. The Department displayed a strong interdisciplinary focus from the beginning: the number of its academic staff, and consequently the range of disciplines represented within it, expanded rapidly. The department has two bachelor’s degree courses (Three-year programmes in Intercultural Communication or Education); one “single-cycle” master’s degree (five-year programme in primary education); and three master’s degree courses (two-year programmes in Human Resources Development, or in Anthropological and Ethnological Science, or in Education). In addition, it offers a range of other postgraduate courses, including Master’s programmes, Short Postgraduate Courses, Professional Development Courses for Teachers, and Ph.D. programmes. In 2018 the Department of human sciences started a 1.500.000 euros founded project as coordinator in the EACEA/28/2017 framework on European policy experimentations in the fields of Education and Training led by highlevel public authorities.
