Research goals
Our main goal for research is that it should contribute to knowlegde and critical insight which will benefit education and society as a whole. This will also contribute to distinguishing the faculty nationally and internationally, especially in the areas where the faculty offers a PhD programme, International Management.
The faculty's building is named after Eilert Sundt (1817-1875), who was born in Farsund, and was a ground-breaking researcher in Social Science.
Strategic goals

From the strategic plan for 2006-2010, approved by the faculty board on June 19, 2006.
