We are the University of Humanistic Studies. Inspired by humanism, we focus on issues that matter, such as social justice, sustainability, and the quest for meaning in a changing society.
We combine knowledge from social sciences and humanities to approach questions from various perspectives. Through research, dialogue, and connection, we contribute to societal issues. We do this close to and engaged with our community.
