The master’s course in Social and Human Sciences at UERN intends to offer an embracing and
interdisciplinary intellectual formation based on deepening and improvement of the theories,
epistemology and methodologies of Social and Human Sciences.
The objective is to foment the construction of knowledge necessary to carry out analyzes on social and
cultural phenomena, through the consistent articulation between theory, research, practice and social
commitment and a humanistic formation. The specificity of the professional trained by PPGCISH lies in
the interdisciplinary reflection on the condition of the subjects, daily practices, the production of
knowledge and the diversity of research problems expressed in the lines of research.
The course also aims to train researchers qualified for research and teaching in different areas of Human
Sciences, who will be able to develop interdisciplinary investigations on: the discursive dimensions of
language; the forms of enunciation of subjectivities in the contexts of production and transmission of
knowledge; and everyday social experiences and practices, which include collective and individual
productions marked by agency and exploration of cultural differences linked to identity processes.
