The aim is to prepare competent professionals for practice in helping professions. Development of helping professions via education and research activities is the basic role of the Faculty. All the workplaces focus on the persons. The persons in the broadest possible sense: the persons as individualities; the persons in their interpersonal relationships; the persons in their social networks; and the persons in social contexts. Specific attention is paid to the persons with problems; the persons requiring care by professionals in healthcare or social scopes. The persons who would suffer, who would not have their physical, mental and social needs satisfied, or would be socially excluded without professional interventions.
