About us


The Department of Ethnology and Folklore Studies was established in 1992 under the name of The Department of Folkloristics and Regionalistics. The study is designed to provide education in the field of ethnology which is considered to be one of the key social sciences. It clarifies development of the traditional culture and the Slovak people’s way of life in Central-European historical and cultural contexts. In relationship with the present, it examines continuity and common and differential features of everyday culture.

Particular courses are aimed at socio-normative culture, socio-cultural background of the Slovak regions development, the culture of ethnic minorities and cultural heritage of regions, which is encompassed in verbal-music-dance and handicraft and art tradition. One of the department’s specialities is its orientation towards folk and artistic displays with the accent on the ethnomusicology. Furthermore, the study schedule includes wide range of facultative courses which supplement the image regarding the development and current state of everyday culture and also courses practically oriented to some areas of the traditional culture.

In the Bachelor programme, these themes are emphasised: Introduction to Ethnology and Folkloristics, The History of Ethnography and Folkloristics, Methods and Techniques of the Field Work, Material Culture and Technologies, Socio-normative Culture, Social Relations and Organisation, Traditional Art, Verbal and Musical Folkloristics, Ethnic Theories and History, Theory and Methodology of Ethnology and Anthropology, Urban Ethnology. The Master’s degree contains these courses: Ethnology of Europe, European Folklore and Folkloristics, European Traditional Music, Symbolic Anthropology, Gender Studies, Current Problems of Ethnology and Folkloristics, Traditional Music of Non-European Nations, Ethnology of Identities, The Religions of the World, Ethnomedicine etc. The field work which embodies the preparation for projects and their realization is the root of the study programmes at both levels.
