When the [[Faculty of Arts, University of Ljubljana|Faculty of Arts]] was founded at the [[University of Ljubljana]] in 1919 the curriculum included a ‘Seminar on Ethnography’, although lectures on ethnology and ethnography (which also included anthropology) officially began in the 1940-1941 academic year with the appointment of the Director of the Slovene Ethnographic Museum, Dr Niko Županič (1876-1961) as the first full Professor of Ethnology. However, by the second semester the Second World War had already brought work to a halt. The main area of Professor Županič’s multidisciplinary and comparative research was the earliest history and ethnogenesis of the Slavs, which was reflected in the first issues of the [[Etnolog (Ethnologist) Journal]], which he founded and edited.

The [[Department of Ethnology and Cultural Anthropology, University of Ljubljana]] offers two graduate programmes in Ethnology and Cultural Anthropology, two postgraduate (MA) programmes, and a European joint degree Master programme Cultural Differences and Transnational Processes (CREOLE), and a guided doctoral research in ethnology and cultural anthropology as a part of the interdisciplinary programme. The department also has its own [[Department of Ethnology and Cultural Anthropology Library, University of Ljubljana|library]] and manages an online database called ''EtnoInfoLab'', which contains photos, slides, clippings and other materials acquired during department-led ethnographic research.

In the 1955-6 academic year Dr Vilko Novak (1909-2003) became Assistant Professor. He established the concept of ethnology as a field which included the study of both European and non-European peoples. Physical anthropology and ethnology of non-European cultures was taught by Dr Božo Škerlj (1904-1961). Later, non-European ethnology was taught for a while by a visiting professor from Zagreb, Dr Milovan Gavazzi (1895-1992).

After the Second World War and the implementation of the physical anthropology and ethnology of non-European cultures a new generation of ethnologists has shifted the discipline in terms of its methodology, subject, and organisation. The research of urban ethnology and worker's culture was introduced. In the 1980s various new themes were introduced with the appointment of new professors and teachers that broadened the concepts of ethnology and anthropology.

In 1990 the Department was renamed into the Department of Ethnology and Cultural Anthropology, and various anthropological subjects again became part of the curriculum. Since 1998, Ethnology and Cultural Anthropology have been an independent study programme at the [[Faculty of Arts, University of Ljubljana|Faculty of Arts]].

From 1999 the department publishes its own monograph collection from the field of ethnology and cultural anthropology entitled the ''Zupanič Library'' (33 volumes had been published by 2010). The department also publishes a collection of student papers entitled ''Etno je fletno'' [Ethno Rules]. More information about the publications can be found at the homepage of the Department.
  
The situation in the Department changed again with the arrival in 1960 of junior lecturer Dr Vekoslav Kremenšek (b 1931). His work in the department and in Slovene ethnology as a whole has been linked to major shifts in terms of methodology, subject, and organisation. He was the first to introduce research into the areas of urban ethnology and workers’ culture. He conceived the way of life as a central subject of ethnology, as was confirmed by his leadership of a project entitled The Ethnological Topography of the Slovene Ethnic Territory. The Department thus developed into a modern pedagogical and research institution. In the 1980s three new teachers joined the faculty staff and 1990-1991 the Department was renamed the Department of Ethnology and Cultural Anthropology, and various anthropological subjects again became part of the curriculum. Since the 1998-1999 academic year, ethnology and cultural anthropology has been offered as an independent course of study. Since that time several new lecturers have joined the Department. The Department’s associates carry out research work in Slovenia and abroad, and publish their work in domestic and international journals.

The Department of Ethnology and Cultural Anthropology is very active in the field of international research cooperation and student exchange. Since 2001 it has engaged in international student, teacher and staff exchanges within the ERASMUS programme and CEEPUS networks. Students have the opportunity to perform a part of their studies at more than 20 partner departments all over Europe (Austria, Bulgaria, Croatia, the Czech Republic, France, Germany, Great Britain, Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Lithuania, the Netherlands, Portugal, Poland, Romania, Slovakia, Spain, and Sweden).  
  
In 1999 the Department began to publish its own monograph collection from the field of ethnology and cultural anthropology entitled the Županič Library (14 volumes had been published by 2005), and two years later a collection of student works entitled Etno je fletno (‘Ethno Rules’). Since 2001 the Department has engaged in international student and teacher exchanges. Students have the opportunity to perform a part of their studies at over 20 partner departments all over Europe (Austria, Bulgaria, Croatia, the Czech Republic, France, Germany, Great Britain, Greece, Hungary, Italy, the Netherlands, Portugal, Poland, Romania, Slovakia, Spain and Sweden).

Researchers in the department have been involved in several bilateral research projects (with partners from Portugal, Romania, Macedonia, Montenegro, Serbia, etc.) and in research projects from the 6th EU Framework (Eumon; Ramses) and Alpha (EU research collaboration with Latin America).
  
The Department of Ethnology and Cultural Anthropology offers undergraduate programmes in Ethnology and Cultural Anthropology, seven specialised Masters programmes in the Ethnology of Slovenes, the Ethnology of Non-European Countries, Ethnological Museology, Ethnological Conservation, Cultural Anthropology, Folklore, and Comparative Mythology, and guided doctoral research in ethnology and cultural anthropology. Researchers in the Department are involved in several bilateral research projects (with partners from Portugal, Macedonia, Montenegro and Serbia) and in research projects from the 6th EU Framework (Eumon; Ramses) and Alpha (EU research collaboration with Latin America).

Background

In 1919, when the Faculty of Arts was founded at the University of Ljubljana, the curriculum already included a "Seminar on Ethnography". Officially the lectures on Ethnology and Ethnography began in the academic year 1940–1941. The first fully-appointed professor was the Director of the Slovene Ethnographic Museum, Niko Zupanič. The main topics of Professor Zupanič's research were the earliest history and ethnogenesis of the Balkan, which were reflected in the first issues of the Etnolog (Ethnologist) Journal, which he founded and edited.

After the Second World War and the implementation of the physical anthropology and ethnology of non-European cultures a new generation of ethnologists has shifted the discipline in terms of its methodology, subject, and organisation. The research of urban ethnology and worker's culture was introduced. In the 1980s various new themes were introduced with the appointment of new professors and teachers that broadened the concepts of ethnology and anthropology.

In 1990 the Department was renamed into the Department of Ethnology and Cultural Anthropology, and various anthropological subjects again became part of the curriculum. Since 1998, Ethnology and Cultural Anthropology have been an independent study programme at the Faculty of Arts.

Publications

From 1999 the department publishes its own monograph collection from the field of ethnology and cultural anthropology entitled the Zupanič Library (33 volumes had been published by 2010). The department also publishes a collection of student papers entitled Etno je fletno [Ethno Rules]. More information about the publications can be found at the homepage of the Department.

International cooperation and student exchange
