Generate a tailored SOP for Dr. Ann Sophie Pedersen. Improve your application with a focused, well-structured draft.
Ann-Sophie Hummelshøj Pedersen is a PhD fellow at Aalborg University's Department of Society and Politics, affiliated with the research group SOSA, which focuses on Social Work in Psychiatry Disability. Her PhD project is part of a larger research initiative called Disabling Exclusion, which examines the negotiated practices within the Danish welfare system that target families with children with disabilities. The project investigates the understanding of normality in relation to disability through the everyday encounters of families with children diagnosed with autism spectrum disorders, engaging with frontline professionals such as teachers and social workers. By employing a mixed methods approach that includes participant observation, qualitative interviews, and surveys, Ann-Sophie aims to reveal the complexities of how professional and family perspectives intertwine and influence the support systems available to these families. Her work aligns with the UN Sustainable Development Goals, particularly focusing on educational access and social equity.
Requirements apply generally to Master's programs across departments including Sociology, Business, and Engineering at Aalborg University.
