Research at the Department of Care Science
The research at the Department of Care Science aims to contribute to equal health and care. Our research environment is characterised by projects that deal with diversity and sustainable changes of importance to the individual, profession, and organisations within the health care sector. Research takes place in close collaboration with the surrounding community.

Research subject Care science
Care science research is multidisciplinary and covers all aspects of human life. In addition, it has a focus on the organisation and practice of nursing. At Malmö University, care sciences research is conducted across six areas, all with the aim of contributing to equality in care and health.
Doctoral courses
Most of the research at the Faculty of Health and Society is interdisciplinary, which opens up new and exciting areas of research beyond the subject divisions that have traditionally existed between medicine and social sciences.
