Welcome to Erasmus School of Social and Behavioural Sciences (ESSB)
ESSB is home to a vast diversity of study programmes and scientific disciplines: Public Administration, Pedagogical Sciences, Psychology and Sociology. In addition, the Erasmus University College, IHS, and two research institutes RISBO and DRIFT are linked to the faculty. Our education is small-scale and based around Problem Based Learning (PBL). Being connected to the professional field is another characteristic of our study programmes.

In 1963 the study Sociology started and with that the Faculty of Social Sciences under the direction of prof.dr. Jacques van Doorn. On a modest scale, we will celebrate the 55th anniversary of the Erasmus School of Social and Behavioural Sciences in 2018. The programme can be found here.
