About Faculty

“Our Faculty has 28 undergraduate, 59 graduate, and more than a dozen applied and scientific postgraduate programs. This colourful scientific and intellectual community is in constant development in rising to the ever-changing challenges of society. This would motivate teachers and students not only to become professionals of specific fields in humanities and social sciences but also to strive for universal knowledge. All these enable the citizens of our Faculty to consider the University a place that is beyond geographical, political, linguistic, and cultural borders while promoting intercultural dialogue and mutual respect. Both teachers and students are invited to do so! The Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences is a perfect place for students to learn languages, develop their skills, enrich their knowledge, find home in a community, and pursue all the beautiful opportunities of student life that go beyond learning”.
