As employer you can choose to train your staff through Karlstad university. Risk- and environmental studies are active in a number of professional training programmes through Karlstad university Uppdrags AB.
Our research explores the social dynamics of political and economic inclusion and exclusion. Racism, as an ideology and everyday practice, constitutes an integral part of this focus, as do discourses on cultural values in contemporary processes of both conflict and convivial coexistence.
The external review of Karlstad University’s strong and excellent research groups concludes that the Computer Science research group produces high quality research.
As part of the university’s strategic investment in research, Computer Science was established as an excellent research group in 2014. Now, two years later, external experts have evaluated the group and assessed research quality and progression.
